各種內向表現: 內向有優點有缺點,了解自己最重要(20詞條)

1. 除了quiet, shy 外還有
內向型 introvert
The difference between an introvert and an extravert is what means more to them? Social interactions or solitude?
2.孤獨 / 獨處 solitude
在所有內向詞句中,這個字最具美感,表示自願、深思,反省, 甚至具創造性。
Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is the richness of self. (名句引用)
3. 擅於自省 / 一日三省吾身 introspective
經常自省的人必須向內下功夫,和自己對話,所以通常內向。
Paul’s 30-year diary is all about his daily observations of his inner soul and mental state. He is the most introspective person I’ve ever seen.
4. 擅於傾聽 a good listener
這是內向者最有價值的一部份。聽完了,明白了,再出意見。
I’m convinced that good listeners are less self-centered than those who keep on talking about themselves
5. 寡言 / 不愛說話 / 惜字如金 of few words
My son is not dumb. He is just of few words.
6. 深思型philosophical
有人習慣陷於深思,說起話來總有三分哲理,是內向性格中最吸引人的部份。
He is philosophical by nature, polite and quiet, but when speaks, it’s like Plato reincarnated. (柏拉圖再世)
7. 隱藏自己 self-effacing
不突顯自己,刻意不搶眼,當然東、西方都有這樣的人,但是西方職場強調有功就要搶,突顯自我價值,才會成功。此字有人解釋為擅於自嘲,老中聽到美言,經常說:「沒什麼啦!」「溢美之詞」, 就是self-effacing。西方人則說「謝謝讚美」, 或I’m proud of myself.
John used to have a conspicuous (炫富) life style, but after marrying a gentle and self-effacing woman, he changes to a more modest and likable person.
8. 不擅言詞 inarticulate
愛講話, 會講話是articulate, 反之則為inarticulate
My husband is so inarticulate that I have to ask him repeatedly what he means.
9. 保守 / 守成 / 不形於色 reserved
往好的說是自制甚嚴,永不躁進, 往不好的說是缺乏突破勇氣,少想像力。 內向的人比較接近這種表現,但過於保守內向也會產生失當激烈行為。
It would be misleading to say that his quiet and reserved demeanor is a sign of cowardice.
10. 退縮 / 孤僻 / 沈默寡言withdrawl
withdraw 是退出,如withdraw from public life.
His withdrawl could be a sign of depression.
11. 離群索居 / 孤獨無助 isolated
這個字表現一種悲涼,比lonely還差,所以我們要solitude, 不要isolation.
During his isolated period, Van Gogh created some of his most iconic works, such as “Starry Night” and “the Bedroom”.
12. 隱士 hermit, live in recluse / seclusion
hermit是自願的隱居,最有名的例子就是出山前的諸葛亮。recluse, seclusion 和hermit意思相近。
13. 大隱隱於市 To remain a hermit in a busy city is considered to be the highest from of seclusion.
14. 獨行俠 / 孤狼 a loner / a lone wolf
雖然這個字未必有貶意,但人都要有社會性才好,才完美,儘可能不要做loner.
When George becomes a loner, his worried mother starts seeing a mental consultant, trying to understand what goes wrong with her son.
15. 宅男, 宅女 homebody
中文宅男女有點貶意,homebody則為中性,不過若又是沙發馬鈴薯(整日躺在沙發上的懒人)又是電腦呆男,就躲著吧!
a homebody, a couch potato and a geek! And you still want to marry him?
16. 高高在上/ 不接地氣 aloof / out of reach
內向者比較會給人們這種高不可攀的錯覺。
Because of her private and introverted nature, the movie star appears aloof and out of reach in public occasions, and hence her nickname - an “Ice Queen”.
17.社交恐懼症 social phobia
社恐症不僅是不敢去參加派對,而是更深層的不敢見生人,甚至包括理髮師,患者生活閉鎖,極需幫助。
Suffering from social phobia, Edward shaves his head bald so that he doesn’t have to go to a barber shop.
18. 避出風頭 shun the spotlight
After winning the Oscar, Amy follows her quiet nature and shuns the spotlight as much as possible.
19. 調停者型人格 INFP Introverted Intuitive, Feeling and Perceiving
內向、直覺、情感和感知,心理學上16種人格之一,他們充滿理想、想像力、十分樂於助人, 是夢想家, 調停者及療愈者, 堅信只要他能出力幫忙,世界就會更好。但有時過於敏感,影響生活正常運作,被稱為靠腦而活 living in their heads。英國令人懷念的王妃Diana也屬此種性格 ,在適合職業中,居然包括「翻譯教師」我這一行。
Unlike most fathers, who find dealing with their rebellious teenagers “painful”, Paul conducts a nightly conversation with his children to encourage and motivate them to achieve a higher goal in life. Paul is said to have an INFP personality - idealistic and full of positive energy.
20. 孤舟簑笠翁,獨釣寒江雪 (唐朝柳宗元)
