Swan 🦢
History & usage: This emoji shows a graceful swan gliding on water, often used to convey elegance, calm, romance, or a gentle goodbye in chats and social posts. In messages, it can soften a note, symbolize purity, or celebrate a special moment with a serene, classy vibe. In UI contexts like labels or notification icons, it may stand for a refined or poetic option, or simply evoke a tranquil mood without words. People use it in captions, stories, and reactions to add a touch of beauty or whimsy, especially when a plain heart or flame feels too bold. Keep in mind tone: it tends toward grace and serenity rather than humor, and it can feel like a quiet sign-off in a friendly exchange. Accessibility: Alt text should describe a swan emoji to assist screen readers.
