What are some words used to describe personality in Spanish?
Some descriptive words are very clear-cut and can be translated almost exactly (i.e. short = corto). However, I am not sure if some descriptive words that describe personality (kind, friendly, sincere, stuck-up, etc..) translate as directly. Thus, I would love it if someone could tell me some words used to describe someone's personality in Spanish and explain exactly what you think each word means?
Thank you so much!
