Morphology
This phrase is a straightforward adjective + noun composition: knowing 'emotional' (prone to strong visible feelings) and 'person' (a human individual) directly yields the meaning 'a person who experiences strong emotions easily.' The compositional adjective–noun pattern is common across languages and in English, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Emotional person comes from a simple picture: emotional means full of feelings and person means someone you can see, so imagine someone whose face and voice show joy or sadness right away. That's why it means 'a person who feels strongly and often'.
