The Raised Back of Hand Emoji (🤚) depicts an open hand with the palm facing outward and the back of the hand visible. It is commonly used to signify stopping, high-fiving, or getting attention. This emoji can express a polite way of asking to speak, much like raising a hand in a classroom or meeting. It may also be used to indicate a pause, rejection, or boundary-setting. Additionally, it can serve as a simple greeting, such as waving hello or goodbye. Available in multiple skin tones, the emoji conveys various meanings depending on the context of the conversation.
