喜樂美語
  1. 1aB1/ˈsoʊʃəbəl/ · /ˈsəʊʃəbəl/愛交際的；喜歡跟人相處的

    Someone who is sociable is friendly and enjoys being with other people, and is happy to spend time talking with them.

    示範例句 · Example

    Leo is the most sociable kid in our class — he talks to everyone at lunch.

    逐字里歐是我們班上最愛交際的小孩——他午餐時跟每一個人說話。

    sociable 形容一個人「跟別人在一起會開心」——不只是對人和善，而是真的喜歡有人作伴。比 friendly 多了「愛跟大家待在一起」這一層，比 outgoing 平淡一點：outgoing 強調敢主動去認識新朋友，sociable 只是享受有人陪。可以想成它跟 social（跟人群有關的）是同一家人，而字尾 -able 帶著「做得來、樂意做」的味道，所以 sociable 就像在說「和人相處這件事，他做得來也樂在其中」。反義詞是 unsociable。

core核心畫面

Think of someone who walks into a room full of people and feels lighter, not heavier — they drift over, start talking, stay. Being around others is where their energy comes from, so they are easy to talk to and glad you are there.

可以想成這樣一個人：走進一個都是人的場合，他不是變緊繃，反而整個人鬆開來——自然湊過去聊，而且待得住。跟人在一起對他來說是充電，不是耗電，所以他好講話、也讓你覺得他很高興你在。
