Where it comes from
The mouth ڡ is an Arabic letter (dotless feh) whose shape looks like a mouth with a tongue sticking out. The ๑ marks on both sides are Thai digits used as rosy cheeks.
When to use it
Use it when posting food, thanking someone for a treat, or saying something looks tasty. It is playful, so skip it in serious or formal messages.
Examples
- Just tried the new ramen place (๑´ڡ`๑)
- Thanks for the cookies, gone in five minutes (๑´ڡ`๑)
