Find the perfect words to describe someone with the world’s most comprehensive and carefully curated collection of adjectives to describe a person. Describing someone can be a challenge because everyone is so unique and we all have our own distinguishing characteristics which often leave us tongue-tied when trying to describe another person. Every word in here was carefully chosen to ensure that it actually should be included in a list of words to describe a person. So many lists online are haphazardly created, full of words that can’t actually be used to describe someone. However, here you can rest assured that every word in here is a word to describe someone.
Whether you are looking to describe someone’s appearance or for words to describe personality characteristics of an individual, you will find them all right here in one place. This list is arranged alphabetically to make it easy to sort through and scan. All words here are adjectives, which are parts of speech that describe one of three things: a person, place or thing. And since this is a collection of words to describe people, all of those included here are adjectives. You’ll also notice that we have included both negative and positive words to describe someone. While we would prefer to see a world of love and kindness, in the interest of accuracy and comprehensiveness, we have included positive, negative and neutral words here. We hope you enjoy this collection and return to it again and again whenever you are searching for some adjectives to describe someone.

What are the best words to describe your personality?
How would you describe yourself?
Most people avoid focusing their own personality when answering this question. Instead, they may talk about their job, their hobbies and interests, places they’ve lived, or other basic background facts about themselves.
Truly and accurately describing your own personality — your unique style of thinking, behaving, and feeling — is quite difficult, because it requires you to take a step back, evaluate yourself objectively, and compare yourself to other people.
The free Personality Wordcloud tool in TraitLab makes this easy, and the results include a collection of words that describe your personality, just like the example wordcloud above.

The Big Five Personality dimensions
Describing the differences between people in a consistent and precise way is very difficult. Modern personality assessments are designed to solve exactly this problem.
Among scientific researchers, who solve these sorts of problems for a living, the most widely-accepted system for describing personality differences is easily the Big Five.
The Big Five isn’t the only way psychologists think about personality, but it’s the one that has the most scientific research behind it — thousands of studies involving millions of participants).
Research studies have connected the Big Five to just about everything: our relationships, career preferences, moods and temperment, music preferences, physiology, and, of course, the words we use to describe ourselves and other people.
The Big Five Personality dimensions are Openness to Experience, Conscientiousness, Extraversion (or Introversion), Agreeableness, and Neuroticism, or OCEAN, for short.
Like everyone else, you fall somewhere between high and low on all five dimensions. When you complete the basic assessments within TraitLab, you’ll receive a score from 0 (low) to 100 (high) on each dimension.
Knowing where you stand on all five dimensions gives you a richer understanding of your typical patterns of thinking, behaving, and feeling, and how you are similar to, or different, from others.
Below, I’ve given a simple description of each dimension, and some examples of words used to describe people who are either high or low on that dimension.1
Openness to Experience
Openness describes your preference and tolerance for new experiences, ideas, and feelings.
Highly open people tend to be highly imaginative, curious, have diverse intellectual and artistic interests, and are more likely to have unconventional habits, ideas, or beliefs.
Less open (or more traditional) people gravitate towards more familiar experiences, are generally less interested in novelty, and hold more conventional interests, ideas, and beliefs.
| High Openness | Low Openness |
|---|---|
| imaginative | traditional |
| philosophical | unsophisticated |
| creative | predictable |
| artistic | conventional |
| eccentric | provincial |
Conscientiousness
Conscientiousness describes your planning, impulsivity, and tendency to follow socially accepted norms and rules.
Highly conscientious people tend to be highly organized and systematic, create detailed plans, are less easily distracted, and more likely to closely follow rules and guidelines across many situations.
Less conscientious (or more spontaneous) people are less systematic in their planning and decisions, are less focused on long-term goals or achievements, are less likely to conform to socially accepted norms and rules, and are generally more spontaneous across situations.
| High Conscientiousness | Low Conscientiousness |
|---|---|
| systematic | impulsive |
| orderly | haphazard |
| meticulous | careless |
| dependable | erratic |
| thorough | frivolous |
Extraversion (or the opposite, Introversion) describes your tendencies around social engagement and positive emotionality.
Highly extraverted people tend to actively engage with others, be more assertive, active, and talkative, and generally experience more positive emotions (e.g., joy, happiness, enthusiasm) across most situations.
Less extraverted people (or highly introverted people) tend to engage in more solitary activities, gravitate towards less stimulating environments, be more passive, inhibited, and reserved, and generally experience positive emotions less frequently and less intensely across most situations.
| High Extraversion | Low Extraversion |
|---|---|
| talkative | quiet |
| assertive | shy |
| energetic | inhibited |
| sociable | reserved |
| bold | bashful |
Agreeableness
Agreeableness describes your motivation to maintain positive relationships with others.
Highly agreeable people are strongly motivated to maintain warmer and friendlier relations with others, seek to reduce or resolve interpersonal conflict, maintain or increase group cooperation, and control negative emotions around other people.
Less agreeable (or more demanding) people are more strongly motivated to pursue personal goals over positive relations with others, in doing so, are more willing to create conflict and disagreement, attempt to impose their will on others, and display or express negative emotions to others.
| High Agreeableness | Low Agreeableness |
|---|---|
| warm | cold |
| compassionate | insensitive |
| polite | demanding |
| considerate | impersonal |
| helpful | uncooperative |
Neuroticism
Neuroticism describes your emotional variability and tendency to experience negative emotions.
Highly neurotic people have more frequent mood swings, have greater tendency to worry, are more easily irritated and susceptible to anxious or depressed moods.
Less neurotic (or more emotionally stable) people worry less and are less reactive to stress, experience less depression and anxiety, and are generally more easy-going.
| High Neuroticism | Low Neuroticism |
|---|---|
| moody | unemotional |
| defensive | confident |
| nervous | relaxed |
| high-strung | unexcitable |
| fidgety | patient |

1: In a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, researchers asked participants to rate hundreds of words based on how well each word described them. These participants also completed a measure of the Big Five personality dimensions. Researchers found that the words people used to describe themselves were consistently to their combinations of five personality dimensions.
