In Eastern cultures, the expression 😧 may indicate surprise, astonishment or being somewhat shocked by something. For example, when hearing unexpected news or seeing extraordinary situations, this expression may be used to convey one's inner feelings.
In Western culture, 😧 also usually represents the emotions of surprise and astonishment, and may be an intuitive response to unexpected situations, novel ideas or shocking facts.
Cross-Cultural Usage Tips
When used in cross - cultures, as its basic meaning of "surprise" is relatively common. However, attention should also be paid to the differences in the understanding of the degree of surprise in different cultural backgrounds. In more formal cross - cultural exchanges, if you are not particularly familiar with the other party's culture, do not overuse it to avoid giving others an overly emotional impression.
It is suitable for use in social situations, such as chatting among friends, when sharing some surprising anecdotes, gossip or unexpected events in personal experiences. It can also be used in group chats to respond to the astonishing news shared by others.
It can be used in a relatively relaxed atmosphere at the workplace, such as in creative discussions, when someone puts forward very novel and unique ideas; or when the team shares some unexpected results and news. However, it is not suitable for use in formal business negotiations and serious reporting scenarios.
