The ๐ค is a depiction of Ebi Furai or tempura shrimp. These Japanese dishes feature crispy batters and all the oily fried goodness you could ask for. Use a ๐ค if these are one of your favorite dishes or if youโre trying them for the first time.[1]
- โSo glad I ordered the tempura shrimp ๐ค SO GOOD ๐โ
- โWanna go to that new Japanese restaurant tonight? Iโve heard they have awesome Ebi Furai ๐๐คโ

A ๐ค refers to all cooked seafood. You may see someone using a ๐ค when they post a picture of a yummy seafood feast, or theyโre headed to a seafood restaurant. Try pairing this shrimp emoji with other seafood or food emojis.
- โLouisiana cooking is where itโs at! ๐ค๐ฆ๐ฝโ

Some use the ๐ค to convey โsaltyโ feelings. The salty taste of fried shrimp can represent foul and spiteful emotions. If youโre feeling angry, bitter, or upset, add a ๐ค at the end of your message.[2]
- โSheโs really ticking me off ๐คโ
- โThere was no one else on the bus, and guess what he does? Chooses the seat right next to me! Sir! I donโt know you ๐๐ค โ

The ๐ฆ represents crustaceans and seafood alike. In its raw form, the shrimp emoji symbolizes all types of marine creatures. Pair it with other swimming animal emojis to talk about sea life.[3]
- โRecycle to clear the seas ๐ฆ๐๐ ๐โ
- โDid you see the ๐ฆ in Happy Feet? He was funny ๐โ
2
A ๐ฆ might mean someoneโs short. Shrimp are tiny creatures, so you may see someone use a ๐ฆ when referencing height or size. If youโre short or petite, consider adding a ๐ฆ to your frequently used emojis.
- โI know Iโm small ๐ฆ but Iโm mighty ๐ชโ
- โBeing called shrimpy used to be an insult, but they're so cute it must be a compliment ๐๐ฆโ
3
The ๐ฆ conveys an incomplete feeling. Have you ever felt small? Like you just wanted to curl up in a ball and disappear? The ๐ฆ has adopted this meaning in recent years. Try using this shrimp emoji when youโre unsure, upset, anxious, or feel like something's missing.[4]
- โLife feels off lately. Like, somethingโs missing ๐๐ฆโ
- โI was so embarrassed! I canโt believe she said that in front of EVERYONE ๐ฉ๐ฆโ

A ๐ฆ could also represent "small penis energy." In certain situations, a ๐ฆ can be used when someone is showing cowardice, aggressiveness, or toxic masculinity. If the ๐ฆ doesnโt make sense in any other context, the sender may be expressing โsmall penisโ pride or saying someone else has โsmall penis energy.โ
- โI got a ๐ฆ and Iโm not ashamed!! ๐คชโ
- โHe acts like heโs some big shot, but heโs just not ๐ฆโ
