Meaning and Interpretation
📩 Yo! This one's super straightforward - it's an envelope with an arrow pointing right at it. Think of it as your inbox saying 'Hey, you got mail!' It's basically the emoji version of that little notification badge on your email app. Use it when you're talking about getting messages, checking emails, or waiting for someone to reply. It's like saying 'DM me' or 'check your inbox' without actually saying it. Super useful for work chats when you need someone to look at their email, or when you're flexing about getting lots of messages 😏
