the personality adjectives hi everybody
and welcome back to top words my name is
Alisha and in today's episode we're
going to be talking about what adjective
describes your personality best so let's
go charismatic someone who is
charismatic is perhaps a good leader
people are drawn to them people want to
follow them want to come to them
charismatic doesn't necessarily mean
that that person is a good person or a
bad person just that they are very good
at drawing people to them people tell me
that I'm very charismatic
boring boring means something that is
not interesting so hopefully nobody
calls you boring if you're a boring
person work on that let's talk about
cardboard boxes reliable reliable
someone who's reliable someone that you
can trust or someone that always does
what they say they're going to do my
best friend is very reliable humorous
humorous humorous is just funny there's
a difference between funny and humorous
and silly in terms of people anyway this
is how I would break it down silly is
like appreciates just very kind of
childish stuff or just enjoys laughing
funny is um like a slightly more
grown-up funny
I feel like silly can be part of funny
silly can fit into funny but funny is a
little bit more grown-up maybe your make
like the actual word jokes that are you
know require a bit more knowledge or a
bit smarter and then humorous humorous
is like I feel like it's a bit more
pretentious I hope that my friend think
that I'm a very humorous person the next
word is energetic energetic means you
have a lot of energy I personally don't
use it if someone says what's your best
friend like I wouldn't immediately think
he's energetic like I feel like that's a
given somehow and when I say that's a
given it means it's it's an already
understood idea I would use energetic
for something you would
expect to be energetic my grandmother is
very energetic she hikes mountains even
though she's 80 something lazy yeah you
don't want to be called lazy generally
it means that you maybe you're not
hard-working you don't take care of
yourself or you don't take care of your
responsibilities generally laziest is
not seen as a good thing unless unless
you use it an expression like today is a
lazy Sunday one of my coworkers is
really lazy he never has his stuff done
on time extroverted extroverted it
begins with that prefix X X TRO like X
meaning outside so like extra more
information so an extroverted person is
a very outgoing person they like talking
they like talking to people they want to
go out and do all the things and be
social and go yeah I like being
extroverted on this program
introverted the opposite of extroverted
is introverted introverted inside
something interior they want to not go
talk to people all the time or maybe
they just have a different way of
expressing their social skills in
reality I'm a rather introverted person
the next word is indecisive indecisive
indecisive people drive me crazy this
word means someone who is bad at making
decisions I have a friend who is very
indecisive she can't ever make up her
mind I have to do it for easygoing
easygoing easygoing is a good thing to
be generally in my opinion easygoing
means you're relaxed you'll just do
whatever you're happy to just hang out
if someone makes a suggestion you're
cool with that alright fine that's great
for me I'll do whatever my best friend
is very easygoing he's cool to do
anything the next word is naive naive so
someone that doesn't have a lot of
experience in a topic or even life
experience could be considered naive you
don't want to be called naive the
suggestion with naive is that it's easy
to take advantage of you maybe you could
be easily molded or your experience can
easily be
changed by someone else so generally
naive is not a good thing you don't want
to be naive
my friend was very naive and got in
trouble with a bad business deal the
next word is artistic yeah artistic is a
good word similar to creative perhaps
artistic is someone who enjoys art or
enjoys creating things so this doesn't
it's not limited to you know just art
like paintings you know drawing doing
paintings or sculptures or something
like that any kind of creative endeavor
any kind of creative work I feel you
could use the word artistic for my aunt
is very artistic she can draw very well
enthusiastic enthusiastic this is
similar to energetic but it just means
you're excited about things you're
enthusiastic about something usually
sports fans are very enthusiastic about
their favorite team friendly friendly I
hope that you are a friendly person
because someone may be that it feels
easy for you to talk to someone that's
chill someone that's probably outgoing
maybe a bit extroverted is a friendly
person I went to an event on Saturday
and everybody there was very friendly it
was a fun time how would I describe my
personality God it depends on the day
man the one that I use lately is
scatterbrained but that has a very
negative connotation about it
scatterbrained if you break down the
words scatter and brain scatter means
like to spread something randomly brain
meaning inside your brain I have so many
different things going on that like I'm
thinking about like this job in that job
in this project in that project and I
have to do this and oh my god my
laundry's not done yet and what am I
going to make for dinner tomorrow oh my
god I have to go running later tonight
what am I going to do how many comes
with coffee if I had this is what's
