Two of these have hardened into set phrases with their own meanings, and they are the ones you really need. A smooth talker uses charm and easy words to persuade people, usually for his own benefit — it is a warning. A fast talker is much the same, someone who talks so quickly and confidently that you agree before you have thought.

There is also a common contrast in English: a talker versus a doer, meaning someone full of plans against someone who actually gets things done. Notice how odd this word is compared with worker or teacher, where the -er just names the job. Nobody's job is talker; the word is always a judgement.

There is also a common contrast in English:英文裡還有一個常見的對比： a talker versus a doer,a talker 對上 a doer， meaning someone full of plans意思是滿腦子計畫的人 against someone who actually gets things done.對上真正把事情做出來的人。Notice how odd this word is注意一下這個字有多奇怪 compared with worker or teacher,跟 worker 或 teacher 比起來， where the -er just names the job.在那些字裡 -er 只是單純指出職業。Nobody's job is talker;沒有人的職業是 talker； the word is always a judgement.這個字永遠帶著評價。
