An extrovert is someone who likes to be social and whose interests mostly lie with things beyond him/herself, such as other people and the physical environment. Extroverts are not as concerned with themselves and thus do not focus much on their own thoughts or feelings. Extroverted people are often emotional, impulsive (doing something suddenly based on an urge), confident about themselves in social situations, and are involved in the lives of others. Extrovert is also written as extrovert. Extrovert- comes from the Latin word "extra" meaning "outside of," and the Latin word "vertere" meaning "to turn." Put the two words together and you get "to turn outside of'.
