What is 😕?

The 😕 emoji, officially named "Confused Face", depicts a face with slightly furrowed brows and a small, often downturned or straight mouth. It conveys a range of emotions, including:

• Confusion: This is the primary and most obvious meaning. It indicates a lack of understanding or bewilderment about a situation, question, or statement. Check more about Confusion.
• Mild Disapproval or Concern: The slight frown can suggest a feeling of unease or reservation about something, without being outright angry or upset. Learn more about Disapproval.
• Skepticism: It can also be used to express doubt or disbelief, implying that the user isn't entirely convinced by something. Check more about Skepticism.
• Perplexity: Similar to confusion, but possibly suggesting a deeper level of puzzlement or complex thinking. Discover more about Perplexity.

The specific nuance depends on the context of the message and the relationship between the communicators. The 😕 emoji offers a less intense way to express negativity than more overtly negative emojis like 😠 or 😡.
