The "(/｡＼)" emote, also known as the "Little Shy" emote, is a Japanese emoticon that represents shyness or embarrassment. It features a face with closed eyes, blushing cheeks, and raised eyebrows, with two curved lines on either side of the face to represent hands covering the mouth. The emote is commonly used in online communication, particularly in Japanese culture, to express feelings of bashfulness or hesitation.
