Harp: So the expression it’s written all over their face is used when you can guess what someone is feeling or what they’re thinking just based on their facial expression.
Maura: Right. So this person hasn’t told you how they’re feeling but because of the expression on their face you know if they’re happy or sad or if they’re having a bad day. You know something about what’s going on inside of them. And like we said, you could use this for a whole bunch of different emotions. It could be positive or negative.
Harp: Exactly. If someone’s happy, sad, angry, anything it could be used for.
Maura: Yeah. So let’s give a dialogue example.
Harp: Hi Sally. How are you?
Maura: I’m OK.
Harp: Are you sure you’re OK?
Maura: Yeah, yeah, I’m fine.
Harp: You seem really stressed out.
Maura: Well, yeah, I am a bit busy at work and at home. I’m a bit stressed. How did you know?
Harp: Well, it’s written all over your face.
