It can suggest being hooked, attracted, or caught by something, both literally (like fishing) or metaphorically (like being drawn into an idea or conversation). It's also commonly associated with pirates, thanks to their iconic use of hooks in popular culture."

  • It can also represent attachment, like holding onto something securely or โ€˜hooking upโ€™ connections.
  • The emoji might symbolize help or support, much like how a hook supports or holds weight.
