An emoticon is a combination of symbols or characters used in online communication to express emotions or convey meaning. It helps add context or tone to text-based messages. Here are two practical examples:

1. I had a great day at the beach today! ☀️🏖️
Here, the emoticons “☀️” and “🏖️” are used to convey the positive and sunny atmosphere of the beach day.

2. Sorry, I can’t make it to the party tonight. 😞🙅‍♂️
In this example, the emoticons “😞” and “🙅‍♂️” are used to express sadness and rejection respectively, indicating that the person is unable to attend the party.
