What is 🙊️ called?

🙊️ is called the Speak-no-evil monkey emoji.

Also known as Speak No Evil, Iwazaru, or the covering-mouth monkey. “Secret monkey” and “oops monkey” describe familiar messaging uses rather than its traditional title.

What does 🙊️ mean?

🙊 is the “speak no evil” member of the Three Wise Monkeys. It commonly means keeping a secret, staying silent, stopping oneself from saying too much, or reacting with an embarrassed “oops.”

Its traditional Japanese name is Iwazaru. Alongside 🙈 See no evil monkey and 🙉 Hear no evil monkey, it completes the three-part maxim, but online it often serves simply as a playful mouth-covering reaction.

Other meanings

Secrecy, discretion, speechlessness, accidentally revealing something, refusing to gossip, or promising not to tell.

Example Usage

Your surprise is safe with me 🙊

I nearly said the quiet part out loud 🙊
