[Traditional Enneagram] The 9 Enneagram Types Speaking Styles

[highlander]

Short and sweet. Seems accurate enough:

The 9 Types Speaking Styles

 

[HongDou]

7 sounds about right. 6 fit a little too - I definitely get like that when I'm trying to figure out how to do something, where to go, what to do, etc.

I have a 3w2 best friend and while the first part seems right none of the second part does. Perhaps being ENFJ with a 2 wing softens that part.

This is making me wonder if my other friend is 7w8 instead of 8w7. I'm sure it's nothing that serious, but it got me thinking about other things.

I thought of talking about how 2 and 9 related to me but I realized it's gonna be 7 accounting for stuff that may not fit. I can see how they'd change my "flavor" of 7 though.

The one for 9's is so true, I think and I love the description of 4's speaking style.

 

[Chad of the OttomanEmpire]

Call me 5w6. Actually, feel free to refer to me as the Head Center.

 

[ceecee]

Lots of 8 for me but a lot of 5 too.

 

[skylights]

I really like these. Concise, clear, and as reasonably accurate as I could imagine something this condensed being. The neutral adjectives vs. "others may perceive" is useful.

I appreciate "engaging and information-oriented" for 6. Those are significant positive elements in 6 interaction style that I think get overlooked in descriptions sometimes.

 

[small.wonder]

Yeah, I guess 4 and 5 are equally true for me.
Especially:
4 - overly expressive, unsatisfied with responses, and emotionally intense.
5 - wordy, and dislike of small talk.

 

[Noll]

My father is such a 5, he has small talk figured out though.

 

[Glint]

Hah - yeah, my wing is definitely a 6, not a 4.

 

[WalkingOnBothSides]

4 and 5 are both very true for me.
