The word is about showing the feeling, not about how big the feeling is — a quiet person can love you just as much.

The word is about showing the feeling這個詞講的是「表現出感情」， not about how big the feeling is而不是感情有多深， a quiet person can love you just as much一個安靜的人愛你的程度可能一樣深。

Families and cultures differ here: some are demonstrative all the time; in others, love stays more private, and a demonstrative friend can feel like a lot. You will hear it about parents, partners, and whole groups: “She’s very demonstrative with her kids.” It is not a rude word, though some older speakers use it with a small raised eyebrow, as if the showing is a bit much.

Families and cultures differ here不同家庭和文化在這一點上不太一樣： some are demonstrative all the time有些人隨時都很demonstrative； in others, love stays more private有些人的愛則比較內斂私密， and a demonstrative friend can feel like a lot這時一個demonstrative的朋友可能會讓人覺得太多了。 You will hear it about parents, partners, and whole groups你會聽到這個詞用在父母、伴侶，甚至整個群體身上： "She's very demonstrative with her kids."「她對孩子非常demonstrative。」 It is not a rude word這不是個沒禮貌的詞， though some older speakers use it with a small raised eyebrow不過有些年紀較大的人講的時候會微微挑眉， as if the showing is a bit much好像在暗示這樣表現有點過頭。

Though actually, the same spelling is also a grammar word for this, that, these and those — that is a different job, about pointing, not about love.

Though actually不過其實， the same spelling is also a grammar word for this, that, these and those同樣的拼法也是文法上的一個詞，指this、that、these、those這一類詞， that is a different job, about pointing, not about love那是不同的功能，是在「指」東西，跟感情無關。
