Describing People #1 - "He's a real character"

image from here

When you need to describe someone who is unusual, interesting or an amusing individual, say this:

"He (she) is a real character."

"You'd like Joe, he's a real character."

You can also use it to define a place:

"The modern hotels here have no real character."
