I do not agree that "espièglerie" has a malicious connotation. It is more a mischievousness, an irresponsible playfulness, or else a piece of mischief, such as a prank.\n\nAs for 'espieglery,' there is no such word in the English language. Again, we behold the wonders spewed forth by Babel Fish and other online translators.\n\nNext time, why not try a real dictionary, such as Collins or Cambridge? Follow the link below, it is rich with possibilities. Simply enter your word in the search box, then click on one of the English-French dictionaries. You'll often get several meanings of a given word, along with examples of usage.

Actually it's "mean mugging" and I think he's using mugging to mean pulling a face, i.e. looking tough or using other exaggerated facial expressions. That's as opposed to mugging meaning to rob someone.

Tell me. \n\nDo you make up words for a living? If not, you ought to try it, b/c that is a very good word. Really sounds authentic, not too much, has an Olde English patois feel to it, very cool. Now come up with a perfect meaning and copyright it.

The sentence sounds like "self esteem" is an object that he is holding in the air.  Maybe:  "He walked away keeping his self esteem intact."  OR: "He walked away trying to keep his self esteem intact."

First of all, "abruation" isn't a word. Secondly, anything "of dictionary" doesn't make sense.
