Emoji 🗨️ depicts a speech balloon with the tail pointing left. Included in the Unicode symbol set, "Smileys & Emotion" section.
🗨️ is used to show a strong feeling, emotional response, and a noticeable inner state. 🗨️ is included in a message when you need to quickly show an emotion, inner response, or noticeable feeling without a long phrase. In messaging, 🗨️ conveys "emotion matters here" or "the reaction is very strong" or "the state is readable immediately." Paired with 💥 😮 ⚡, 🗨️ reads more naturally and understandably.
