Sociability

Jean's such an introvert (inward-looking and quiet), and her brother Mark is such an extrovert (outward-looking and sociable). Strange, isn't it? Mr. Rogers is such a diffident man (lacks confidence; has a low opinion of himself). English people are traditionally thought of as rather reserved (not immediately sociable). Barbara tends to be rather aloof. I don't know if she's just shy (unfriendly and not sociable).

My aunt Annie can be very haughty (unfriendly and thinks herself better than others) and disdainful (does not believe others deserve respect) at times, but she's lovely really. I've always found Professor Mactoft very unapproachable (not easy to be sociable with or start a conversation with), but his colleague Dr. O’Dell is very approachable. Nancy is so conceited (thinks herself wonderful) and self-important (has an exaggerated sense of her importance), but Flora is such a modest person, (prefers not to exaggerate her own qualities). My boss is such a flirt, though I would never call her that to her face. Nobody in the office is safe (makes constant romantic approaches).

Character traits

Joss is a somewhat naive person; he thinks love can solve all the world's problems.

(willing to believe simple things perhaps because of inexperience).Telephone salespeople often take advantage of gullible people (easily deceived). My father was a very conscientious man; he never took time off work unless he was really

sick ( always took his work very seriously). You are so obstinate (unwilling to change, despite persuasion) and pig-headed! (similar to obstinatebut stronger, more disapproving).Why don't you listen when people give you good advice?

He's quite an unscrupulous character; I should be very careful if I were you. (lacking in moral principles, prepared to do very bad things).
