How to describe a person's behavior and personality!
I decided to divide the adjectives into two groups:
1 - positive, courteous and kind ones;
2 - negative, rude and sometimes disrespectful ones.
Let's start with those adjectives that help us to describe the character of a person in a positive and courteous way!
A GOOD person could be defined as:
GENEROSO/A or ALTRUISTA (GENEROUS or ALTRUISTIC), whether they is characterized by a real desire to help others, whether they know them or not.
Example: un cittadino altruista (an altruistic citizen).
Both of these adjectives indicate a tendency to help others, but the adjective "generous" indicates in particular the willingness and the readiness to give money.
Example: un capo generoso (a generous boss).
CORDIALE or AFFABILE (FRIENDLY or AFFABLE) are used if a person is friendly, kind to others, even strangers, who never refuses a chat or a greeting and who dispenses spontaneous and warm smiles. In this case, you could also define them as ALLA MANO (EASY-GOING).
Es: a friendly girl.
RICONOSCENTE (GRATEFUL) is the one who recognizes the good received by showing gratitude and willingness to reciprocate it.
Es: una bambino riconoscente (a grateful child).
BONARIO/A or INDULGENTE or CONCILIANTE (GOOD NATURED, INDULGENT OR OBEDIENT) is someone of a mild and tolerant nature, ready to consider the mistakes of others with humanity, understanding.
Es: un esaminatore indulgente (an indulgent examiner).
A TRANQUILLO/A AND AFFETTUOSO/A (CALM AND AFFECTIONATE) person, on the other hand, could be defined as:
PRUDENTE (CAUTIOUS), that is, that acts with precaution and wisdom and evaluates the consequences of his/her actions, in order to avoid any unnecessary risk.
Es: un guidatore prudente (a cautious driver).
AFFIDABILE (RELIABLE), that is, that deserves someone's trust because he/she has shown great skills or ability and seriousness.
Es: un dipendente affidabile (a reliable employee).
PREMUROSO/A (CARING), if he/she pays a lot of respect and affectionate and loving attention.
Es: un marito premuroso (a caring husband).
TACITURNO/A (QUIET/TACITURN), a person of few words, who rarely speaks.
Es: un'amica taciturna (a taciturn friend).
A person who is DECISO/A (DECISIVE), has a lot of energy and will of act can be described as:VIVACE or EUFORICO/A (LIVELY OR EUPHORIC), if it reveals a strong vitality and is therefore particularly awake, active and exuberant.
Es: una bimba vivace (a lively child).
CIARLIERO/A or LOQUACE or CHIACCHIERONE/A (CHATTY, LOQUACIOUS OR TALKATIVE), if he/she talks a lot and always has something to say.
Es: una ragazzina chiacchierona (a talkative little girl).
VOLENTEROSO/A or DILIGENTE (KEEN or DILIGENT), whether he/she has a great desire to do and good will, whether she likes it or not.
Es: un apprendista volenteroso (a willing apprentice).
CAPARBIO/A or TENACE (STUBBORN or STEADFAST), if he/she is particularly stubborn, who always does or thinks in his/her own way and does not hear reasons.
Es: una donna caparbia (a stubborn woman).
A person who doesn't have clear ideas and is really confused about his/her life could be considered:
LUNATICO/A (MOODY), if it has a strange character, an unstable mood that changes easily and in a short time.
Es: un adolescente lunatico (a moody teenager).
IPOCONDRIACO/A (HYPOCHONDRIAC), if you have an excessive concern for your health and when you have even the slightest problem, you think about the worst immediately and you are always deeply convinced that you are suffering from a serious illness.
Es: un amico ipocondriaco (a hypochondriac friend).
A FALSO/A, VUOTO/A and DEBOLE (FALSE, EMPTY and WEAK) person can be described as:
IPOCRITA (HYPOCRITICAL), that is, a person simulating exemplary attitudes or feelings; in other words, a person who pretends to have sound principles, ideas and values.
Es: una donna ipocrita (a hypocritical woman).
