U+1F642 · Emoji 1.0 · Smileys & Emotion
Overview
Understated to the point of ambiguity, Slightly Smiling Face shows a plain face with a small, gentle upturn of the mouth, encoded at U+1F642 in the face-smiling subcategory of Smileys & Emotion. It was added with Unicode 7.0 and Emoji 1.0 in 2015. On its surface the emoji conveys mild happiness or general goodwill, but its restraint has also made it a popular vehicle for irony, resignation, or passive-aggressive undertones, depending on context. This gap between literal warmth and figurative use lends it a distinctive versatility, so it often softens a statement or masks a more complicated feeling. The single-codepoint character renders without a joiner or modifier.
A subtle, gentle smile conveying mild happiness or contentment. Also used sarcastically or to soften a passive-aggressive message.
