( ´ỏ` )ｽｩｩｩｩ…( °ㅁ° )ﾊｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｱ

A deep breath in, ｽｩｩｩｩ, follows the first face, and a long breath out, ﾊｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｧｱ, follows the second, both written in half-width katakana; the out-breath runs nearly three times as long as the in-breath. The small ｩ characters after ｽ lead straight into the …, while the row of small ｧ after ﾊ ends on a single full-size ｱ. In ỏ, the first face's mouth, a tiny curl shaped like a question mark with its dot taken off floats just above the ring of the o, with a small gap between them. Across the upper part of the face, the ´ on the left, this curl and the ` on the right line up side by side at roughly the same level; below them there is only the ring of the o. In Vietnamese, a curl like this over a vowel is one of the marks that tell tones apart. The tone that ỏ (LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH HOOK ABOVE) carries is called hỏi, and the word hỏi itself is spelled with this very ỏ. Vietnamese writes tones with marks shaped like ´ and ` as well, but in this face those two aren't attached to the o: they stand apart on either side of it as characters of their own. The second face's mouth is a square about twice as wide as each ° eye: ㅁ, HANGUL LETTER MIEUM, the Hangul letter Korean uses for the consonant m. The top of each ° ring rises above the upper edge of ㅁ, and the bottom of the ring sits lower than that edge. In both faces, everything inside the parentheses is pushed toward the ), leaving a wider gap on the ( side.
