mien

mien (mên) noun

1. Bearing or manner, especially as it reveals an inner state of mind: "He was a Vietnam veteran with a haunted mien" (James Traub). See synonyms at bearing.

2. An appearance or aspect.

[Alteration (influenced by French mine, appearance). See minaudière, of Middle English demeine, demeanor, from Old French, from demener, to behave. See demean1.]
