Asterisk

Meaning and Description

This is an eight-wheel asterisk, which looks a bit like a simple snowflake. It is formed by crossing two "ten" characters. The emoji is generally used as a special symbol. For example, in mathematics, it can be used as a "multiplier"; In Chinese, it can also be used to mark in the upper left corner or upper right corner of words, which means "marking and explaining". Sometimes, the emoji is also applied to the network platform, and its function is similar to "mosaic", which is used to shield sensitive words or uncivilized speech.

Different platforms depict different emoticons. In most platforms, a background frame is designed, which is green or blue. As for the colors of eight asterisks, they also vary from platform to platform. Most platforms are white, some platforms are black, and some platforms are blue.
