ESL Podcast 1169 – Being Talkative and Reserved
Marcia: Phew! I thought they’d never leave.
Artem: I enjoyed their company, didn’t you?
Marcia: Jessie is fine, a little reserved and soft-spoken, and on the shy side. Kelly, on the other hand, talked our ear off. No one could get a word in edgewise with her.
Artem: I thought Kelly’s anecdotes 1 were funny. She was a little long-winded, I’ll admit, but I enjoyed talking to her more than trying to make conversation with Jessie. She is so close-mouthed and guarded that it was like pulling teeth.
Marcia: I’d rather talk to someone who is a little reticent 2 than a loudmouth.
Artem: Ooh, that’s a little harsh.
Marcia: Maybe you’re right, but I don’t like the blathering, gossipy type.
Artem: I wonder…
Marcia: What?
Artem: I wonder what they’re saying about us.
