What 💬 means
A cartoony speech bubble with three dots inside the balloon part of the emoji. This emoji would vary in colour and design across different platforms.
The 💬 Speech Balloon signifies the act of speaking (of course), but also the process of thinking and even typing a message (the three dots). This emoji suggests constructing the perfect reply, understanding a message or even lost in deep thought while chatting.
How and when to use it
