Как описать характер на английском

Стандартные слова-описания, которым учат в школе - beautiful, handsome, smart, hard-working - разумеется, очень полезны, но их бывает недостаточно. Сегодня я покажу вам сленговые и разговорные выражения для описаний характеров. Положительные описания I love listening to his stories, he's got such an amazing sense of humor. I'm not really a people person. I'm more of an introvert. Their family was so generous with me. I'm really grateful. She is my favorite character from this show, she is so witty. Do you think this company is reliable? I used to be very anxious, but I've become more laid-back. I prefer being friends with people who are more down-to-earth. I wish I could be a go-getter like him. Отрицательные описания I don't understand why none of them can take a joke. He's so grumpy for a child! She's become quite big-headed after getting that job. Don't be so pig-headed. Try listening to others for a change. I used to think she was nasty, but later found out she was a nice person.
