White exclamation mark Emoji

Symbols

A hollow, white exclamation mark with a thick grey outline and a square base. It appears as a stylized, oversized punctuation mark that emphasizes a statement or acts as a visual alert.

Usage Context

Used to denote surprise, excitement, or to call attention to a specific point in a message. It functions as a lighter, less aggressive version of the standard red ❗ mark, making it ideal for mild emphasis or playful interruptions.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2010 as part of Emoji 1.0, this character was derived from legacy wingding-style font sets used in early computer systems to provide graphical punctuation for desktop publishing and digital layouts.
