open指不隐瞒自己的秘密,愿意向他人表露自己或公开暴露自己的缺点。
frank强调毫无保留地畅所欲言,不受任何约束。
sincere侧重指一个人出自内心地对某人某事表示一种诚意。
blunt指讲话坦白直率、不客气,但隐含不得体、不顾及他人感情等意味。
honest指遵守正直等道德准则。
plain指直言不讳,毫不做作或故弄玄虚。
straightforward多用于答复、叙述等场合。指直截了当,不回避,或故弄玄虚。

公元1300年左右,“自由的,慷慨的”; 公元1540年代,“直言不讳的”,源自古法语 franc “自由的(不受奴役); 无阻碍的,免除的; 真诚的,真实的,开放的,亲切的,慷慨的; 值得的,高贵的,杰出的”(12世纪),源自中世纪拉丁语 francus “自由的,自由的,免除服务的”,作为名词,“自由人,法兰克人”(参见 Frank)。
Frank, literally, free; the freedom may be in regard to one's own opinions, which is the same as openness, or in regard to things belonging to others, where the freedom may go so far as to be unpleasant, or it may disregard conventional ideas as to reticence. Hence, while openness is consistent with timidity, frankness implies some degree of boldness. [Century Dictionary]
Frank,字面上是 free; 自由可能是指一个人对自己的观点的自由,这与 openness 相同,或者是指对他人的事物的自由,这种自由可能会变得令人不愉快,或者会无视有关保留的传统观念。因此,虽然 openness 与胆怯一致,但 frankness 则意味着一定程度的大胆。[世纪词典]
这是对部落名称的概括; 其联系在于,作为征服阶级的法兰克人是唯一在一个只认识自由、俘虏或奴隶的世界中享有自由人地位的人。关于“成为一个民族的一员”和“自由”的意义联系,可以比较拉丁语 liber “自由”,与德语 Leute “民族,人民”(参见 liberal(形容词))和斯拉夫语中的“自由”词(古教会斯拉夫语 svobodi,波兰语 swobodny,塞尔维亚-克罗地亚语 slobodan),它们与英语 sibling “兄弟,姐妹”的第一个成分是同源的(在古英语中更常用于一般意义上的“亲戚,亲属”)。关于后来的意义发展,可以参考 ingenuity。
