Previously displayed with&nbsp;a gendered appearance, now shown as <a href="/neutral/">gender neutral</a> on most platforms.

previously-gendered

A hand shown pressing against the head of a person, commonly written as&nbsp;facepalm. Used to display&nbsp;frustration or embarrassment at the ineptitude of a person or situation.

May be used&nbsp;in a similar context to the acronym <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=smh">SMH</a>&nbsp;(shaking my head), or in relation to the <a href="http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/facepalm">Picard Facepalm meme</a>.

Face Palm

Man Facepalming

Woman Facepalming

A yellow face with simple, open eyes and no mouth, as if at a loss for words. Meaning widely varies, but commonly conveys speechlessness, humility, and silence.&nbsp;May also convey moderately negative emotions, such as disappointment, frustration, or sadness.&nbsp;

Samsung&rsquo;s design <a href="/samsung/touchwiz-7.1/face-without-mouth/">previously featured</a> raised eyebrows and blushing cheeks.

Face Without Mouth

A yellow face with&nbsp;a small, closed mouth, flat or frowning, rolling its large, white eyes upwards. As with the gesture of an eye-roll, commonly conveys moderate disdain, disapproval, frustration, or boredom. Tone varies, including playful, sassy, resentful, and sarcastic, as if saying Yeah, whatever.

Samsung&#39;s design&nbsp;<a href="/samsung/touchwiz-7.1/face-with-rolling-eyes/">previously depicted</a> a face smiling and looking to the side.

Face with Rolling Eyes

A yellow face with slightly raised eyebrows, a frown, and eyes looking to the side. May convey a variety of negative emotions, including irritation, displeasure, grumpiness, and skepticism, as if giving the <a href="/eyes/">side-eye</a>.

Not to be confused with <a href="/smirking-face/">😏&nbsp;Smirking Face</a>, which features similar eyes but a wry smile.

Unamused Face

A yellow face with flat, closed eyes and mouth. May convey a sense of frustration or annoyance more intense than suggested by&nbsp;<a href="/neutral-face/">😐 Neutral Face</a>,&nbsp;as if taking a moment to collect itself.

Microsoft&#39;s design <a href="/microsoft/windows-8.1/expressionless-face/">previously</a> displayed this emoji with its eyes open, while Samsung&#39;s design <a href="/samsung/experience-9.0/expressionless-face/">previously</a> had eyebrows.

Expressionless Face

A person shrugging their shoulders to indicate a lack of knowledge about a particular topic, or a lack of care about the result of a situation.&nbsp;&macr;\_(ツ)_/&macr;

Displays as raised shoulders, sometimes in conjunction with raised arms and flat hands. The shrug gesture in text (emoticon / kaomoji) form is known as a <a href="https://kaomojipedia.org/shruggie/">shruggie</a> and typed as: &macr;\_(ツ)_/&macr;

The Unicode character&nbsp;Shrug&nbsp;(&quot;Person Shrugging&quot;)&nbsp;does not specify a gender, though it was previously shown as a woman on most platforms. See also&nbsp;<a href="/woman-shrugging/">Woman Shrugging</a> or&nbsp;<a href="/man-shrugging/">Man Shrugging</a>.

Shrug

A yellow face with simple, open eyes and a flat, closed mouth. Intended to depict a neutral sentiment but often used to convey mild irritation and concern or a deadpan sense of humor.

Neutral Face

A hand held up showing its palm. May be used to mean stop, or as a high-five.

Raised Hand

A palm tree, a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecaceae">tree-like plant</a>, as grows by the sea. Depicted as a palm tree&nbsp;with long, green, feather-like leaves and a tall, brown, segmented trunk.

May be used to represent beaches, tropical climates and cultures, summer fun, and vacations (holidays). Vendors&nbsp;implement a similar tree in their <a href="/desert-island/">🏝️ Desert Island</a>.

Microsoft&rsquo;s palm tree bears <a href="/coconut/">coconuts</a>, as Samsung&rsquo;s <a href="/samsung/experience-9.0/palm-tree/">previously</a> did. <a href="/apple/ios-9.1/palm-tree/">Apple&rsquo;s</a> palm tree previously had more erect palms.

Palm Tree

An upset person, frowning with dismay. Gender is not specified,&nbsp;but generally shown&nbsp;as a woman.

Previously displayed as a man on <a href="/samsung/touchwiz-7.0/person-frowning/">Samsung</a> and <a href="/microsoft/windows-10/person-frowning/">Microsoft</a> platforms.

Person Frowning

A person with a serious expression,&nbsp;showing mild displeasure&nbsp;with the situation. Could be considered to be reserved or stoic in response, as this person is not visible angry.

Quite different to the&nbsp;<a href="/pouting-face/" title="😡 Pouting Face">Pouting Face Emoji</a>&nbsp;which conveys a more aggressive tone, and is a smiley. <a href="/pouting-cat/">Pouting Cat Face</a> is a cat.

Person with Pouting Face

An angry-red face with a black bar and white <a href="https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/grawlix-symbols-swearing-comic-strips">grawlixes</a> covering its mouth, indicating it&#39;s swearing or being vulgar. Grawlixes are typographical symbols (e.g.,&nbsp;@#$%&amp;!) representing swear words or obscenities. Often used to convey an outburst of anger, frustration, or rage.

Most platforms feature the same eyes as on their <a href="/angry-face/">😠 Angry Face</a>.

Serious Face with Symbols Covering Mouth

Two hands held out together with open palms facing up, in a slightly cupped manner.

May be used to represent an open book in American Sign Language (ASL), or the gesture used by&nbsp;followers&nbsp;of Islam when&nbsp;praying. This gesture also appears similarly to one used to beg for for money.

Palms Up Together

A love&nbsp;heart, broken in two. This emoji represents the aching one feels when they are missing the&nbsp;person they love.

Broken Heart
