Outlined in orange rather than filled solid, this diamond is one of the emoji keyboard's most-used decorative bullet points. Rarely typed to mean an actual diamond, it started as a Japanese web-layout habit and shows up just as heavily now in Arabic, Indonesian, and Japanese social posts breaking up a line of text.
What ๐ถ means
An equal-sided rhombus or diamond, filled with glossy orange with a thick black outline. The ๐ถ Large Orange Diamond emoji has an array of interpretations based on the context; which amount to three main scenarios; jewelry, road safety, and politics.
How and when to use it
- From the perspective of road safety, ๐ถ could signify a warning sign or a warning board found on roadsides - which you can use in a literal or metaphorical context.
- Some instances supporting the previous point are - "Keep an eye out on the warning signs while driving, and you'll be good to go ๐ถ" or "Warning signs are often confused for warmth because they look the same, just with different intentions ๐ถ".
- In a virtual context and social media usage (such as Twitter), ๐ถ could symbolize the liberal democrats, precisely in the UK. This angle could be generalized into the literal and figurative frameworks of both the physical and virtual application of this emoji.
- An orange diamond, also known as a pumpkin diamond is quite a pretty precious stone. And since there are no emojis directly referring to this precious little thing, you could use ๐ถ.
