'I agree with what a few people have mentionned, grammar study, especially if you already know a few other languages, can be a real time-saver. One of my favourite way of picking up new information...
In my experience, INFPs learn about a philosophical doctrine by espousing it and defending it and experiencing it from the inside as much as they can, trying new possibilities and just you know,...
The question was ESFJ or ENFJ, so aux-Si or Ni. I've always viewed philosophy as the field of intuition and the realm of intuitives, which marked her philosophical interest, amongst other things, as...
Catherine INTJ, maybe yeah. It's hard to tell. And about Samantha, yeah, well, the more I think about it, the more ENFJ makes sense for her. The way organizing seems her second nature is not very...
I'm just messing with you. I agree INTPs are well-disposed towards philosophy, like many intuitives, and maybe more so than others. I admit I used to be suspiscious of the assumption that Plato could...
Hahahaha! I'm glad a true INTP and Ravenclaw agrees with my assessment! I've always thought Luna to be her own very special brand of INTP (I don't see what else she could be). As for every...
But don't you agree that sort of weightless and free outlook on words you get with second and third languages allows for a special affinity to poetry? I don't know if I've expressed it correctly,...
Lovely thread, thank you INFJBrit. I do love poetry so much it's hard to pick a few. I guess I'll just go with my top three poets among those I actually bothered memorizing poems from. ...
1) grapheme-colour synesthesia, with slight variation depending on the language/alphabet (higher saturation to english, subtle sheen to french, more texture to german, deeper colours to ancient...
I guess you just kind of feel the sounds?
Iesh. That's hard. Did you tell people about this? Do you tend to keep those intuitions to yourself?
I'm so glad this thread exists because yeah, it can be a bit overwhelming. I've had a few markedly live dreams about the people I care. I dreamt I met on campus this friend of mine who lives...
Wow! That seems like a lot of sensory data to compute! I think I'd hate to hear movement! What kind of sounds do you hear? I've read somewhere about impossible colours like your 5. I have that...
High five! :)
Oh! Congratulations! 7 is a very good score! I think you should not hesitate in learning a new language, especially as a synesthete, because synesthesia is an immensely powerful language...
I've stumbled upon a series on netflix called Shakespeare Uncovered. The one on Macbeth presented by Ethan Hawke dedicated a whole section to Lady Macbeth. I thought I'd give you the hint ;)
Yay! I'm glad I stumbled on this thread! I've been longing to discuss synesthesia and intuition! 92796 I have a completely different color palette than you guys for letters and numbers, above...
Oh my! HAHAHAHA! The doll incident is so funny. Thank you for sharing it. I kind of get what she could mean by that doll has a lot of personality, though I'd have to see it. From what I gather, you...
I've found greater undestanding with ENFPs than with INFPs. ENFPs are very laid-back and the ones I know are very creative. They understand when I say stuff like that shade of green make me feel...
:)
Yeah, well, I got carried away. Sorry about that. Even though I'm glad you found something worthwile in all that. But you know, listen to you heart and people who know you best, you'll get the best...
She really is an amazing and unique character. Not much meekness in her. I think you're right, ENTJ would account for her impatience, her need to get things done and how very convincing she can be...
HAHAHAHA! And here's one just for you ;)
OMG you do?! hahahaha! Incredible! Congratulation on the start of you journey :) and thank you for your question, really it has given me a lovely opportunity for a quiet contemplation of my...
I think you did a fine job remembering them, they all seem very defensible. I've asked myself about Orlando and couldn't come up with anything but xSFP seems right, and I'd even say ESFP. He...
Hi Agnes! :) Welcome to personality cafe! I hope we'll be of some use to you! I'm not an ENFJ myself but my lovely elder sister is an ENFJ and really, wow! You remind me so much of her! She's all...
Hi Gleeful! Sorry! I hadn't noticed your contribution! So I just happened to have posted the exact opposite opinion! :wink:. Well, I don't think she's doing it because it's the right thing to do,...
Aaaah! Excellent question, Satan Claus! (Hello Satan Claus! What a nice username!) I love Lady Macbeth! I used to have an eraser with Out, damned spot! on it. I always felt so frantic when I used...
Oh thank you so much Twiddledeb! I do trust him in the judgment of his own character. Extroverted he is then!
Hi guys! INFJ Gryffindor here! Lovely thread! So I've rackled my brains to remember all of my pottermore-tested friend's houses : Gryffindor : 2xISTP, 2xENFJ, 2xINFJ Ravenclaw : INTP, INTJ,...
Thanks for your answer. Do you think it had to do with Si?
Oh my Mister Default Settings I believe I have not entirely been honest with you. Time to set the story straight. I don't believe in catholic humility. it just popped in my mind like that at the...
hahahaha people learn to watch their word around ENTPs. It's not bad. Thank you for confessing your hoarder/germ-freak tendecies, I really had to ask.
Oh but I do like it! I know I sounded critical but it's the dearest thing that she'll remember I told her my sister doesn't like brushing her teeth in the company of others eight years after we had...
Yeah, this is what I had in mind. I wish we had a good source! :)
Whoah, I might have mispelled something or used the wrong phrasing, English is only my third language so please be kind. I'm confused and not exactly sure where you see a problem with what I wrote....
I've noticed ENTPs do that, remember tiny details of long-forgotten conversations and bring them back in a discussion. This very good ENTP friend of mine knows all of my cousin's names and...
Is Si the reason why ENTPs can be both hoarders and germ-freak at the same time? Is Si the reason why ENTPs can have such specific food preferences?
Great novel! My favourite still is Pride and Prejudice, but Sense and Sensibility is beautifully written too. I love Elinor! I have such a hard time not blaming Marianne when I read Sense and...
I think the connection between male INTJ and female INFJ is amazing. One of my very best friend is an INTJ and this friendship is so rewarding. We're now at a place where we can work together on...
I love how aware they are of their surroundings. The entire room takes life and acquires a whole new dimension with them. I like the sense of urgency ESTPs bring. I have something against ENTP...
Wow! Marianne extroverted? Adjugé! I'm hugely impressed! Thank you for putting us back on track with Marianne's case. I loved the presentation, thank you for the refenrences. So maybe then ESFP?
Twist it the way you like, this statement is funny at best, depressing at worst. I actually laughed when my INTJ friend publicly proclaimed this, but the small part of my mind that has retained some...
Wonderful subjects! I've considered teaching languages too. I loved language classes back in secondary school. Especially English classes. So formative and creative. English is such a free language....
Teacher in the making here! :) 1. What type are you? INFJ 2. What do you (intend to) teach? Philosophy in junior college 3. How long have you taught for? Still studying. I've had one...
Yes, I've noticed this too! You ENFPs really care about people. To me, ENFPs are the less self-centered type of Fi user out there.
Angelcat, you may have a point with Marianne admiring Brandon's loyalty and Si. And yet…! My premise of melancholy might be off, but the more I think about it, the more I believe Marianne to be an...
Interesting angle Fried Eggz. Thanks you so much for the extra kick! I'm not sure about this one though. IXFP have this tendency to melancholy (I always think Richard II) which I don't see in Lizzie....
You doubt they're introverts? It seemed so obvious to me but now that you type them so I don't know anymore.
Here's my contribution with characters from the historical plays Richard II - IXFP Henry IV (Bollingbroke) - ENTJ Henry V (Hal) - ENTP Falstaff - ENFP Henry VI - ISFJ Edward IV - ESFP...'
