What the speaking head emoji means
🗣️ (speaking head) is a grey silhouette mid-shout, and online it means volume: yelling, “say it louder for the people in the back”, hype for a good take, and, in 2020s slang, “yapping” — talking too much. Three 🗣️ in a row is agreement at full volume. It is a text-style symbol with a variation selector, so it can render as a plain grey head. 📢 announces, 💬 is a speech bubble, 🔊 is a speaker.
