😢
U+1F622 "😢" Crying Face is a pictographic representation in the Emoticons block, depicting a yellow face with a single blue tear falling from one eye and a downturned, quivering mouth. It was added to the Unicode Standard in 2010 as part of Unicode 6.0, and it is commonly used in digital communication to convey feelings of sadness, disappointment, sorrow, or deep emotional pain, often in response to upsetting news or a heartfelt moment. This emoji is distinct from the louder, sobbing "😠Loudly Crying Face" and serves as a more subdued, poignant expression of grief or melancholy.
