Condescend and patronize curiously are used to explain each other: to be condescending is to speak in a patronizing manner and vice versa :O).\n\nThe difference, though, is that in condescending, one is "descending" to the level one perceives the other to occupy;  in patronizing, one is acting or speaking in a manner that a patron or sponsor would act, that is, like a superior in rank.\n\nSo if you speak in a way that says, "I am adjusting my speach to accomodate the inferior mental abilities of the person I am speaking to," you would be condescending.\n\nIf you speak in a way that says, "I am adjusting my speech in a way thatdemonstrates my sense of the difference in mental/educational rank between me and the other person," you would be patronizing.

if they are a very talkative tell them that they are- loquacious...it is an adj. meaning very talkative.\n\nif they are lazy tell them that they are- indolent... it is an adj. for lazy\n\nif they are disrepectful tell them that they are insolent... it is a adj. for disrespectful\n\nif they are shy tell them that they are - diffident... it is an adj. for shy\n\nI read the dictionary in my spare time and enjoy saying some of these simple synonyms to really dumb people. I really get a kick out of it when they just go "huh" \n\nhave fun humiliating people.
