considering I’m not in south asia, and don’t interact with anyone from south asia it’s not something that I have come across, like ever.
use it all you want though, I’ll just always remember the douche bag that used it 500 times a day and associate anyone that uses it like them to the douche bag.
Also when i think “prayer hands”. I think of this one 🙏 not this 🤲. That one doesnt appear when you search “thanks”. And i think it would be a little strange to use. Perhaps if the tone is showing ‘humility’?
You can also type “thanks” or “please”. Both of those show the hands together emoji.
they do now because people are using it incorrectly.
not once in my life have I groveled a “thank you” and I don’t intend to start via text.
Are people also using eggplants improperly? And, you’re proud to never have said thank you?
Emoji aren’t strictly prescriptive with their meaning. They are generic symbols that can have many meanings in different contexts and cultures.
The name of an emoji is more a suggestion than anything else.
I shall inform south asian people that they are using their hands wrong.
