Meaning & usage
Wave hello ((^_^)/) forms a text-based face or gesture.
Keep the complete sequence together so the expression retains its intended shape.
U+0028 U+005E U+005F U+005E U+0029 U+002F identifies this exact wave hello form; copying the character preserves its Unicode identity, while its appearance depends on the font or emoji renderer.
wave hello is a sequence of 6 Unicode code points, not a single character. Keep every part when copying it: removing a joiner, selector or component can change the result.
How to type wave hello
- Windows
- Use Win + . for the emoji and symbol panel, or Character Map for supported fonts. In Microsoft Word, enter each hexadecimal code (28 + 5E + 5F + 5E + 29 + 2F) and press Alt + X. There is no universal decimal Alt code for this character; legacy Alt codes depend on the code page.
- Mac
- Open Character Viewer with Control + Command + Space and search for wave hello. With the Unicode Hex Input keyboard enabled, hold Option and enter the UTF-16 units shown above. Standard Option shortcuts do not cover every Unicode symbol.
- Linux
- In compatible GTK applications, press Ctrl + Shift + U, enter 28 + 5E + 5F + 5E + 29 + 2F, then Enter. Enter each code point separately for sequences. Other desktops or apps may require their character picker.
- iPhone & Android
- Look for wave hello in your emoji keyboard if available, or copy it here and paste. Save frequently used symbols as a text replacement or keyboard shortcut; availability varies by keyboard.
