crying face

Sobbing visage shown

A crying face is an emoji (😢) showing a single tear rolling down one cheek, expressing sadness, disappointment, or hurt feelings.

It conveys mild to moderate distress—less intense than the loudly sobbing face with streams of tears.

Often used to express sympathy or gentle sorrow: Just heard the news 😢.
