标点符号暗藏的性格秘密

A recent scientific study analyzed what your favorite punctuation mark means about you. Every writer， every person， over-uses and abuses at least one punctuation mark.

最近的一项科学研究分析显示，你最爱使用的标点符号可以揭示出你的性格特征。每个作家、每个人都会有自己特别常用，甚至滥用的某种标点符号。

Period （.）： Type A personality. You are decisive and clear. You have no difficulty in setting limits. Often a stodgy person that no one else thinks is any fun to hang out with. You tend to be good with technology and have the latest gadgets.

句号：A型人格。你做事果断，干净利落，擅长设置各种限制，通常比较刻板老套，给人一种比较无趣的感觉。你是技术控，拥有很多最新的科技产品。

Exclamation point （！）： You are excitable and anxious. You dont self-censor well and think that your opinion always matters. You get nervous easily and are often too loud. Youre either an egomania or a mean drunk. Youre fun at parties.

感叹号：你是一个易喜易怒的人。你不太会自我反省，总认为自己的观点很重要。你很容易紧张，也经常会大声喧哗。你不是一个自恋狂，就是一个酒鬼。你对去各种聚会很感兴趣。

Question mark （？）： Indecisive and uncertain. You over-analyze. You may be shy and have low self-esteem. People usually have no idea youre there.

问号：你做事犹豫不决，瞻前顾后，想得太多。你可能比较腼腆，自信不足，在人群中没有存在感。

Comma （，）： The peacemaker. You like to help others， and you get along with everyone. You like to make sure people understand each other. You like clarity as much as the Period type， but， unlike him， you dont subscribe to the “less is more” theory. You believe more information is better than not enough. For this reason， you sometimes confuse others and can become tiresome. But， in general， youre fun， or at least tolerable to be around.

逗号：和平使者。你乐于助人，和任何人都能打成一片。你希望确保每个人都能相互理解。和“句号型”性格一样，你也喜欢把所有事都说清楚讲明白，不过，你对“少即是多”的理论并不买账。你认为消息应该是多多益善的。正因如此，有时你会把别人弄糊涂而令人生厌。但是，总的来说，你还是蛮有趣的，至少让周围的人可以忍受。

Em-dash （—）： Youre stuck up and pretentious. You correct peoples grammar and complain about how stupid kids are these days. You made good grades in school and perform well at work. Your boss loves you， even if your co-workers dont.

破折号：你爱炫耀，自命不凡。喜欢纠正别人的语法错误，总是抱怨现在的孩子有多愚蠢。你在学校里成绩很好，在工作中也表现出色。即使同事们不待见你，老板也会喜欢你。

Ellipses （…）： An indecisive and flighty person. You lose your train of thought easily. You are a follower and like to let other people take the risks. You often misplace your keys or spend ten minutes looking for the glasses youre already wearing.

省略号：你缺乏决断力，反复无常。你很容易就走神，喜欢随大流，总是让别人去冒险。你经常会忘记把钥匙放在哪儿了，或者花十分钟去找已经戴在你鼻梁上的眼镜。

Quotation Mark （“）： You arent very original. You tweet famous quotes a lot. You are nosy and like to gossip； mostly because you dont have anything of substance to add of your own. People like to hang out with you for a coffee break but dont really consider you a friend.

引号：你缺乏原创性，总爱引用名人名言。你好管闲事，又爱八卦，这主要是因为你没什么主见。人们喜欢和你出去约会喝杯咖啡什么的，但却不把你当成真正的朋友。

Colon （：）： You like things to be well-delineated. Much like the Period type， you like order， too. You make lists. You usually get asked to organize the office parties or school functions.

冒号：你喜欢凡事井然有序。和“句号型”性格一样，你也喜欢秩序性。你做事喜欢列清单，总被人委派去组织公共活动或担任学校某种职务。
