Where it comes from
The round ears and head are ʕ and ʔ, letters from the International Phonetic Alphabet. The snout is ᴥ, a Latin letter (small capital ain), with • as the eyes.
When to use it
Use it as a cute sign-off, a greeting, or a nickname for someone. It is soft and harmless, but may feel too cute for formal messages.
Examples
- Good morning ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
- Thanks for the snacks ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
