|---|---|---|---|
| 🥺 | Pleading face | Puppy-dog eyes for a request or an “aww”. Works on almost every phone. | |

| 🤲 | Palms up together | Asking for something, or prayer. | |
| 🙇 | Person bowing | A deep apology or a polite request. | |
| 🫶 | Heart hands | Love and thanks. Emoji 14.0, so older phones may show a box. |
Which emoji means begging or pleading?
🥺 (pleading face) is the one people mean by the begging emoji: big shiny eyes, a small frown and raised brows, like puppy-dog eyes. It is used to ask for a favor, to say please, or to show that something is touching. 🥹 (face holding back tears) is the softer, grateful version, and 🙏 (folded hands) is read as please, thank you or a prayer depending on the chat.
For a more playful ask, pair 🥺 with 👉👈 (two fingers touching) to look shy, or with 🐶 for the puppy-eyes joke. 🥹 is newer than 🥺, so a very old phone may show an empty box instead; if that happens, use 🥺 or 🙏.

Frequently asked questions
What is the begging emoji?
🥺, called pleading face, is the emoji most people use to beg or plead. 🙏 (folded hands) is the other common choice when the message is a please.
What does 🥺👉👈 mean?
It is a shy, hopeful ask: the pleading face plus two index fingers touching, as if someone is nervously asking for something.
Why does 🥹 show as a box?
🥹 was added to Unicode in 2021, so devices with older software may not have it. Use 🥺 as a fallback.
