@Giovanna-0273939 I want to know if all I wrote can be used the same in the same sentence to say when a person is "kind"?

@dkirs Sim, claro, é o mesmo que no português, poderia usar esses adjetivos na mesma frase. 😊

@Giovanna-0273939 then, are you sure if I want to say a person is polite, I can also use the same , gentle,attentive, and affable?.

@dkirs Ahh, não, achei que era pra descrever uma pessoa com todos os adjetivos, mas como eu disse, é igual no português, cada palavra tem seu significado diferente. Apenas kind e gentle significam ambos gentil, eles sim não têm diferença. Mas os outros são "atencioso" e "afável" que é tipo amigável.

@Giovanna-0273939 then, if I say, he is a kind person means he is a generous person? if I say: he is a gentle person means he is a polite or attentive person?

@dkirs São sinônimos, mas acho que "amiable" é mais como "amável", no sentido de alguém ser fácil de se gostar. Friendly e affable são mais parecidos. (ao meu ver)
