(⩐ˬ⩐)

Two big U-shaped eyes, each capped with a flat bar and filled with a slanted lattice, and a tiny v of a mouth hanging below them. The eyes are ⩐ (CLOSED UNION WITH SERIFS AND SMASH PRODUCT), a math symbol: the set-union sign ∪ closed off at the top, with the smash-product sign ⨳ placed inside. On screen, the U is drawn with a thick line and a round bottom, and the bar across its top sticks out a little past both arms. The pattern inside is two lines slanting one way crossed by two lines slanting the other, like a # tilted 45 degrees, which leaves a small diamond-shaped gap in the middle; it touches neither the U nor the bar. Each eye is about three-quarters as tall as the parentheses, so the eyes fill most of the face. The mouth is ˬ (MODIFIER LETTER VOICING), a character from phonetic notation. Here it is a small, thick v, about half as wide as an eye and a quarter as tall. Its top sits below the bottom of the eyes, and its point dips even lower than the bottom ends of the parentheses. There are no spaces between the characters. Flat on top and round underneath, each eye looks a bit like a half-closed eye with the lid pulled straight down, and the lattice can read as × eyes or as a little glint. Big eyes, a tiny mouth dropped low: the face looks blank and a bit goofy, as if someone just told it something it can't quite process. On November 16, 2026 (Japan time), someone on X posted this face with a one-line note saying they really love it and that it's cute. Plenty of faces on our site use ˬ as a mouth, like ( ˘ˬ˘ ), but this is the only one with ⩐. Send it when a family member or a pet does something so unexpected that you're lost for words, when you share something odd but cute, or when you own up to a small mistake with a straight face.
