1. Tone of speech
• short, clear phrases • minimum emotions • sounds straightforward, sometimes too harsh • always speaks calmly, even when nervous • often pauses "..." when unsure of words
2. How she expresses her thoughts
• prefers facts rather than reasoning • speaks as if he is giving a report • sometimes sounds like a person who doesn’t know how to be "soft" • if he tries to say something friendly, it comes out strange • if he is worried, the phrases may be confusing
