"Kurai" of "**クライ**ガナ島(***Kurai**-gana Island*)" is an antonym of あかるい:Akarui. It means dark, dismal, gloomy, shadowy, dull, depressed, dispirited, sorrowful, ignorant, unclear, unknown, unfamiliar, stranger, etc.

"-gana" is one of modality of the sentence end in Kansai area (around the Kansai International Airport). It is often used by the comedians in Kansai area.

"Shikke" of"**シッケ**アール王国 (***Shikke**-aaru Kingdom)"* is wet, damp, moisture. "-a(a)ru" means "there is/are", "it is", "I/we have".

I'm not sure it is muggy or not because there are tall needle-leaved trees. So I feel cold rather than hot. It looks like north of cold damp Kyoto where a lot of cedar rise. A lot of wild Japanese monkeys are still living in the mountains around Kyoto basin. One of the west mountains, Arashi-yama is famous tourist spot today. It is very cold for me even if I wear heavy coat from Autumn to Spring, but foreign tourists walk lightly dressed. So my impression is doubtful.

It is one of the typical loud crying mimetic word for a little girl. Actually it is hard to cry with sound of "E". Ordinarily the animals cry with "A/O/U". It is the signal of "Listen to me!! Take care of me!!".

"***-sama***" is suffix of general polite honorific title for a person such as "Mr./Mrs./Miss." Its casual suffix is "-san". "***-sama***" is usually used as an address on postal matter such as "**Dear Mr.** Moria" and as polite calling customers name by service providers. However, some ladies often call their super-star idol with "**-sama**" like ”Beckham**-sama**”.

Perona calls others without "**-sama**" and speaks rough as if she is a young man like Zoro. Both of speaking tone is very similar except the person difference, 私:Watashi ("I" for a woman or politely for all) /おれ:Ore("I" for a man). But she calls only her master with "**-sama**". She is deeply attached to Moria, I suppose.

It's just an aside but, I like ladies of Doflamingo Family who call him "若様:Waka**-sama** (my dear young lord**)**" with their longing as much as they have. Generally I like all ladies in One Piece. I really admire the author for his wording and drawing of ladies. They are all admirably vivid bonny. Besides, I like the item wording too.

#### **Mihawk:**

And then he decided to take care of her without ignoring her request, without going out for a walk. A man has no choice to do so for a crying woman with mimetic "Eeen". To let her talk three times as much as he talk.

By the way, he doesn't have "interpersonal modality" but "epistemic/deontic modality". He also uses "epistemic/deontic modality" as same as others. He doesn't order her "leave." He shows his pain and his sense of appropriateness, "good or bad".

Interpersonal modality is shows users inter-personality in the social community. "X ga Ii (X is good) **-ne**" is used as thumb-up button on Social Network Service like Facebook. The one who has the richest modality in variety is Nami. She is the professional negotiator. She can handle most of above examples as necessary, for instance she pretends to be a man "Nami-zou" in front of Lola.

Mihawk Interpersonal modality is null of redundancy-suppression or middle-dot-padding in silence, "*-**・・・***", very poor but very rich in the context in Japanese.

"耳障りだ **-null** (*It is harsh on my ears.*) ” is very sharp. But his next sentence, "他所で泣き喚くがいい**・・・**(*You ought to cry and yell elsewhere**...**)*" has long dull indefinite aftertaste because of unmodified verbal modality. It is the same way he has no defined Special Skill nor flashback to modify his life. He is designed deliberately avoiding needless modification as if making a contract document of the long-span system development include operation and maintenance to leave the door open to further negotiations on drinking.

He repeats nonverbal null & dull Interpersonal modality. It is a typical nature of Casanova, Don Juan and Mukashi-wotoko.

The most mysterious ability of the women is that they can speak long sentence in regular word order fluently even if they are given up their own emotion.

That aside, the ones who talk with Mihawk have two interesting common points. The first, they talk about a **person** generally. The second, they give him **an example of** **something**.

He is awkward and slow enough that the rapid persons who talk with him want to give him the hint. "In this case, you’d be nice to do something like xxx as a man". But he knows very well that he goes well unless doing such a typical example. He is lazy to do something usual.

His answer is usually ぶっきらぼう: Bukkirabou (curt, rude, blunt, brusque) with few words at first. But he links his words one after another in an order of ideas to flash across his mind.

"Koto" is mimetic word of soft mild calm tender touching of small light items as if they tweet a sweet word in their neighbors ear quietly. It is a fantastic sound. It should sound when we shake quietly an antique music box, an old engage ring in the jewel box, a nostalgic photo frame, and so on. Mihawk himself drinks "グビッ:Gubit" according to Zoro's flash back, but his items always sound softly like a fantasy.

"Koto..." is very true answer Perona hopes from him. I don't know another better answer than it in this scene. It is the best. Her ghost looks down "Koto..." In truth, the above conversation has reversed meaning.

He has already aged eyes or his eyes seem to weak to see the small fonts and pictures on the paper. He reads it too near or too far his eyes. One of the reason a man knits his brows tight is squinting at something to focus. Others are reading the paper within proper distance. One of his habits is talking with someone without looking at the face. He doesn't have a habit to check facial expression. It means he has another richer information source.

His speaking is 訥弁:Totsu-ben (poor, slow, awkward, stumbling, ineloquent, do not have a glib tongue) in the original text. He usually speaks ぽつぽつ:Potsu-potsu (like a few drops of rain starting to fall) with a lot of dots of silence.

He is a man of 朴訥:Boku-totsu (true honest but simple and naive). Her ghosts have already trust him to do 万歳:Banzai (cheer up or give up). They look like to give up thinking about news of Moria-sama themselves leaving all the decision-making to Mihawk-sama and now enjoy playing with ghosts around him.

Even so, he is a man who is really をかし:Wokashi. His impression changes like a kaleidoscope each every scene. Moreover, he has different impression of wording and drawing in one frame.

He sounds like he had no confidence about what he answers her question like a few rain drops on the wording. At last, he gives up "Saana (Who knows, I'm not sure, I don't know.)". However he looks like he is sure to explain something easy fluently. He is full of confidence leaning back in his armchair deeply, putting his arms on the armrest at ease, crossing his legs as usual on the drawing.

He is talking about his lack of confidence high confidently. He is like Usopp who is full of confidence as for his lack of positiveness.

It is a trivial matter but, Human Drill's thinking(?) silent pop "**...............!!**" are same font of Mihawk silence. It is also used to Luffy's rare silent pop just eating with Jinbe who advises him to eat is to live and Nami's silent pop wearing "moody" T-shirt. It is the silent font of White-Den-Den-call (rare:flying psychic wave to scramble against wiretapping) who has the へ letter mouth. Recently, I doubt that one of White-Den-Den-calls ate Hito-Hito-no-mi Model:Mihawk is Mihawk.

Of cause near by him. Closing one eye and looking at something with another eye is same habit of them. Recently, I doubt that one of Human Drills ate Hito-Hito-no-mi Model:Mihawk is Mihawk. There are too many habits in Mihawk as a human...

I like his thinking way, "よしんば:Yoshinba - ダメ元:Dame-moto though". Even if I fail, I shall be in my original position. Even if it does not go well, I shall be where I was. I shall lose nothing except my life. Even if so, this very my life was not here originally. I think that he is the most thorough about everything he thinks.

He seems to think, "is that so? is it true what he says?"

Human Drills think, "well, i don't agree his opinion. he was the most brutal one", "we were just peaceful traders of the forest until he arrived", "we offered good foods to humans and got the blight decorations to show up ourselves", "that's right. and we offered him nice foods to exchange his brilliant sword", "yes, it is the most excellent", "his hat is beautiful, too", "rather, and we asked him to exchange them for our foods as usual", "just at that time, he suddenly roared...", "we were all surprised at that....", "he is so brutal that beneath for such an elegant hat", "It is beneath you to say such a thing", "sorry, brother but..", "anyway he didn't seem to understand our business...", "sure he did not...", "i doubt he has no idea of business..."

Well, I have a lot of comments about their dialogue but...

First of all, the wording of Hawk-eye is very easy to type even with troublesome 2-byte-code IME kana-kanji conversion because it is plane in the form of a built‐in dictionary of my PC.

His neat dictionary-like wording puts the accent on his fundamental animality in his symmetric lean body rather than his intelligence in his random moody mind. He has so symmetric figure that he usually behave unsymmetrically. He always sits with one leg raised. He often put his head on one side. And he sighs to turn away. I'v never seen such a man who sighed to turn away...It is a typical habit of heavy smokers who cannot stop smoking and try to escape their smoke under the table in front of the non-smokers. He might leap up and run away when he is blown a smoky breath on.

My dictionary says "man has the beast and the spirit in him". I feel that he is the most beast-like man who goes on an animal trail, safe Desire path. It is not so far from his castle to see it behind Roronoa. Maybe they are within his safe territory he can walk around to observe without weapons. Although he has the advantage of the terrain, he has his full-set and sits on the higher wall to take more advantage of position. How watchful. He can attack one-sidedly with good sight and whip quickly behind the wall when he is attacked by others. There are such ruins of the building all around.

Beasts and children like ruins with windows they can hide and watch out.

Well then, where do I feel his intelligence in his spirit? Why do I feel he is a man?

His habit of turning away is like a dog who smells wasabi. His habit of sitting one leg raised is like a cat who removes contaminants from his body by a leg. His habit of one-sided tweeting about what he is not asked by anyone as he likes is like a bird who is weak to hear sirens from fire engines.

Then, what is the critical deference between his humanity and his animality?

The answer is next scene.
