Hi The word is used to describe how a person acts in social situations. For example, a person is discreet if: - they do not talk loudly about their feelings or force their opinions on other people - they are careful not to upset or embarrass other people - they are wise and restrained in what they say: they do not show off or say things just for effect - they are careful not to give away secrets or say what they know about others if that would hurt someone - I will tell you about Henry's illness but please don't mention it to anyone else. If you must talk to him about it, please don't upset him.
