Conversational topic: Characterizing people

The delineation of person's appearance more often than not is associated for us with the estimation of a person and our aesthetic attitude towards him. In brief outlines, nevertheless, we must content ourselves with speaking of it but in general terms. Thus, a person may appear nice to deal with, good looking or ugly. There may be kind of rapport between us or the admittance of its absence may turn out to be absolutely indispensable.

The description of appearance includes the description of the face, actions and manners as well as clothing.

External signs, and this should be laid special emphasis on, are undoubtedly indicative of character. Different traits and characteristics of a person such as responsibility, will power, kindness and others can be expressed by the features of the face in general. The characteristics possessed by a person will be found to be indicated also by parts of the face – eyes, mouth, chin, hair, beard or moustache. The Persians, for instance, must esteemed those people who had long and crooked noses. Much can be learnt of a person's nature from the mode of carrying his head, body, etc. To be able to read a person's character is an asset to be worth developing.

The delineation of a person's appearance can be invaluable in life. It can be of great importance in finding a suitable partner in life, forming new friendships, in selection of personnel in one's business or even in finding a criminal or a person lost in unfamiliar surrounding.

The study of a person's looks as we believe adds to your knowledge of people and make our life, on top of it, more pleasurable, clear and distinct.
