🎌

Crossed Flags Emoji 🎌

What 🎌 means

A pair of Japanese flags, crossed with each other forming an 'X' kind of a symbol. The 🎌 Crossed Flags emoji could indicate that a given racing event is half-way through. However, this emoji may also be used as a synecdoche for a race or competition.

How and when to use it

While sharing info on racing events, 🎌 would come in handy. This can be a motor car racing event, a bike racing event, a competition, or any virtual means of competing as well.
If you're giving live updates about a racing event that has now completed half its course, use 🎌. Similarly, this emoji can be generalized to anything that's "half-way there".
Some instances supporting the second use-case are - "I'll meet you half-way 🎌", "Believe you can and you're halfway there 🎌", or "Halfway isn't all the way but it's far better than no way! 🎌".
Since 🎌 is a pair of Japanese flags, you could use this emoji as a general element in Japan-related contexts.
