Jung used "extra" and "intro", case closed. Latin for "turning outside" and "turning inside".

...though Jung also didn't mean extraversion as synonymous with "sociable" or introversion with "needs to refill their tank" or whatnot, but "cognition primarily concerned with the object as opposed to the subject or the other way around".
