Rocking the wavy horizontal line or dash, used as a punctuation mark in Japanese writing and as a decorative text element. Represents approximation, trailing off, or stylistic separation. Use as a text separator, for approximate values, trailing off in thought, or decorative text formatting. The tone can shift depending on context — a message to a friend reads differently than one to a coworker.
What is the official Unicode name for 〰️?▼
Each emoji has an official name assigned by the Unicode Consortium, which may differ from common names used in apps. The Wavy Dash emoji's official designation is listed in the Unicode CLDR (Common Locale Data Repository). Shortcode names like those on Slack or Discord are platform-specific.
Can screen readers interpret 〰️?▼
Yes. Screen readers announce emoji by their Unicode name, so 〰️ would be read aloud as "Wavy Dash." When using multiple emoji in a row, screen readers read each one individually, which can be overwhelming — so use them sparingly in accessible content.
What is the shortcode for 〰️?▼
On platforms like Slack and Discord, you can type `:wavy_dash:` to insert the Wavy Dash emoji. On GitHub, the same shortcodes work in issues and comments.
