Someone who thinks out loud, recharges in crowds, and never met a silence worth keeping.
means A person whose energy flows outward toward people and activity, drawn to social contact rather than drained by it.
from Built from Latin extra- or extro- 'outside' plus vertere 'to turn' — so literally 'turned outward.' The word was shaped in early 20th-century psychology, with Carl Jung popularizing extraversion (his preferred spelling) as one half of a pair with introversion, describing where a person's attention and energy naturally turn.
