We will use the structure BE + ADJ, or look + ADJ to explain the personalities of people for example; He’s nice. She looks kind.
Positive personalities are as follows:
nice sincere clever quiet optimistic thoughtful tidy |
kind honest intelligent sensible patient cheerful |
helpful careful warm calm polite considerate |
generous smart reliable interesting self-confident
|
Negative personalities are as follows:
cold lazy |
indifferent nervous |
funny (odd) pessimistic |
impolite rude |
weird / strange insincere |
However, we also have what are called ‘neutral personalities’, which can be both positive and negative, depending on the person: serious, imaginative, inquisitive, shy.
