Overview
Grinning Squinting Face shows a broad open-mouthed grin with both eyes scrunched tightly shut, encoded at U+1F606 in the face-smiling subcategory of Smileys & Emotion. Introduced in Unicode 6.0 and Emoji 0.6 in 2015, its clenched eyes and wide smile depict hearty laughter or delight, close in spirit to the tears-of-joy face but without the tears themselves. It suits genuinely funny moments and exuberant happiness, reading as more animated than the calmer smiling faces. Often used interchangeably with other laughing emoji to signal amusement, the single-codepoint character displays without a joiner or modifier.
A face laughing hard with squinted eyes and open mouth. Used for intense laughter, hilarious moments, or uncontrollable fun.
