🤥️ Lying face emoji

What is 🤥️ called?

🤥️ is called the Lying face emoji.

What does 🤥️ mean?

The lying face emoji represents dishonesty, a fib, exaggeration, or catching someone in a lie. Its long nose references Pinocchio, whose nose grows when he lies in the well-known story.

It can accuse a claim of being untrue or admit a playful, harmless lie. 😏 Smirking face suggests sly confidence without proving dishonesty, while this symbol states the lying idea directly.

Use it for obvious excuses, tall stories, teasing disbelief, or self-aware confessions. Serious accusations may need words because the emoji can make the charge seem playful.

Other meanings

It may indicate stretching the truth, bluffing, false promises, or jokingly pretending innocence. The long nose can also be used literally when discussing Pinocchio.

Example Usage

I definitely did not eat the last biscuit 🤥

He said the delay was only five minutes 🤥

More details

Its Unicode code point is U+1F925, and it was introduced in Emoji 3.0. The reference is to the fictional Pinocchio rather than a claim that real noses change when people lie.
