gregarious

Dutch translation: gezelligheidsmens

10:02 Jul 14, 2014

English to Dutch translations [Non-PRO] Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc.
English term or phrase: gregarious I'm translating a list with personality traits which contains among others "gregarious". "Van gezelschap houdend" is nogal omslachtig. Bestaat hier 1 adjectief voor zoals in het Engels? "Sociaal" lijkt het dichtst erbij te staan, maar dat is niet 100% hetzelfde. Graag jullie mening! :)	KelseyR KudoZ activity Questions: 26 (none open) (2 closed without grading) Answers: 0 Belgium

Grading comment Bedankt! Ik heb voor gezelligheidsmens geopteerd. Sociabel vond ik ook erg goed, maar dat had ik eerder al gebruikt voor een ander woord (in dezelfde lijst). 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer

Branco van der Werf Netherlands 13:12 Jul 14, 2014  Misschien 'extravert'? Natasha Ziada (X) Australia Sociaal 10:55 Jul 14, 2014  klinkt wat mij betreft goed, als het per se één woord moet zijn, en de context is wat formeel (hetgeen ik vermoed als het om een lijst gaat).

Grading comment Bedankt! Ik heb voor gezelligheidsmens geopteerd. Sociabel vond ik ook erg goed, maar dat had ik eerder al gebruikt voor een ander woord (in dezelfde lijst).
Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer) agree  Kirsten Bodart: Ja, lijkt me goed! 38 mins   -> Dankjewel! agree  Natasha Ziada (X): Gezelligheidsdier is een prima vertaling, maar twijfel aan de context (plus is geen afjectief)/ eens maar asker vraagt om adjectief - weet niet hoe belangrijk dat is/het is wel de beste vertaling dus toch agree :) 42 mins   -> In een lijst kan je best een znw zetten. Context ken ik niet en "sociaal" is niet krachtig genoeg en "sociabel" gebruikt niemand... Dankjewel! agree  Steven Segaert: Al lijkt me dat voor België ongebruikelijk. Maar toch iets meer verstaanbaar dan "sociabel" :-). 1 hr   -> Dankjewel! agree  Kitty Brussaard: Of 'sociaal' dan wel 'extravert' als het toch een bijvoeglijk naamwoord moet zijn 2 hrs   -> Dankjewel! agree  Ron Willems: met mens, maar niet met dier :) // zeker wel, is hier alleen een beetje te familiair ajhmv 4 hrs   -> Geen fan van Marianne Thieme? Dankjewel! agree  Hans Geluk: Liever nog gewoon gezellig. Is toch een prima vertaling van 'gregarious'? Zie Van Dale NL-EN onder gezellig (4) neiging hebbend om met anderen te verkeren. social, gregarious, sociable. :))) 7 hrs   -> Gezellig joh! Dankjewel!
