Good morning, dear friends. ^_^
As I won the latest game by Mishaikh, I'm a game host in this round. Here are the clues........
- It can be either countable noun or intransitive verb
- It is related to human
- It is an action, and there's a happy emotion in it (Exactly: A GESTURE)
- It is personal affair with specific person/people (It can be with everyone in one case, but partner is a bad choice.)
- It shows the opposite of love (It means: someone is up to something)
- Someone is happy over someone else's unhappiness or misfortune
- The origin word is from Old English
- It is commonly used as everyone can do
- It starts with consonant
- It is a kind of mock. But somehow it's just a childish or silly gesture.
IT IS NOT schadenfreude/ cynicism/ epicaricacy/ luzl/ glee/ gloat/ vaunt/ brag/ tempest/ gibe/ SNEER/ taunt/ chuckle/ snigger/ scoff/ ridicule/ prank/ slap/ teehee/
RED COLOR means the closest WORD so far
IT IS 'SMIRK' ----> Game is SOLVED
The winner is -----> ** HAYAH ** ^_^

Dear friends,
I know this word from the comedy drama I watched. :D. I like this word since it is funny. I believe that it is only childish action if we do at our close friend or relatives just for joking. Please don't get me wrong,, I'm just kidding all around. This word is interesting to me. lol.......

Thank you so much for your participation. This game wouldn't be interesting without you all. And those who clicked the likes and others who're just reading. Many thanks. I hope this will be useful. ^_^

Mishaikh dear,
I knew you knew it, and this is also not a difficult word. But the clues needs to be unclosed all. :D Thank you very much for sharing lots of words. I got many kinds of smiles here. :))
ELF Noor dear,
Yes, sure. I also learnt a lot from this game. You also share lots of words which surprised me here... :o :D
Thank you for your nice words. Can I smirk at you next time... ;) :D
Glad to know this word from you.. I also have listen this word but I forgot.. >.<<br />
Awesome game you hosted..
I learned alot yesterday because of this Game.. XD
I was curious, what could be your word..
LoL
Now don't smirk at me.. :))
We are looking forward to see you as a host of this Game..
Hayah, at every step of life, you will interact with different natured persons, different people, some will love , some will like you, some will discourage you, some will motivate you, some will dislike you.. So learn to face every kind of person(harsh, rude, polite, kind, lovely, nice.....)
Do good, love others but try to not keep expectation from others as expectation always hurts..
Stay Happy Dear..
This word has been used in Harry Potter series very often. I could not continue after leaving office, otherwise my next guess would surely be this.

Congratulation Hayah.
Hayah, be brave, face the realities. We can not change the attitude of the people, but of course share our duty to explain what is right and what is wrong. Rest should be left to Allah.
I wish you bank in game. Last time I enjoyed struggling against you in the game.
May Allah bless you and your family.

Congrats to the winner. Dear Onee-chan, I'm sorry for not able to participate because the game was played in the weekend. As you know I seldom come during weekend, maybe just for a few minutes. And last Sunday, I just managed to complete my 13th run for the year. Hooorraaayyy. Now, I'm aching all over and yet still trying to pretend to my boss that I'm still awake. Hahahaha

Thank you for your comment. ^_^

Onee, about your word, I had this gestures in mind:
But I couldn't know how to describe any of these gestures XD
O.k. I admit. That's what I call a good explanation. You act like if you were a real teacher lol...
