face with hand over mouth

U+1F92D · Emoji 5.0 · Smileys & Emotion

Overview

A smiling face covering its mouth with one hand forms Face with Hand Over Mouth, an emoji of suppressed reaction. Introduced in emoji version 5.0 in 2017, it is encoded at U+1F92D in the face-hand subgroup of Smileys & Emotion. The gesture reads as stifling a laugh, reacting to gossip, or registering mild, amused shock, and the visible smile keeps the tone light rather than alarmed. CLDR keywords such as giggle, oops, secret, and whoops outline that playful register. It is shared under the shortcode :face_with_hand_over_mouth:. Because a hand partly conceals the expression, vendors emphasize the raised eyes and the positioning of the fingers to signal a giggle held back, distinguishing it from the more secretive Shushing Face.

A smiling face covering its mouth with one hand. Used to react to gossip, suppress a laugh, or express mild shock.
