Thumbs Up Text Faces (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ Copy Paste Approval & OK Emoticons
This collection features 20 thumbs up and approval text emoticons expressing agreement, encouragement, and "you got this" energy. From simple approval (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ to enthusiastic endorsement, these kaomoji communicate positive support without words—perfect for cheering friends on, approving plans, or signaling agreement. Copy and paste into Discord, texts, or anywhere encouragement is needed.
The thumbs up gesture translates remarkably well to text. The و character (Arabic letter waw) resembles a raised fist or thumbs-up hand when positioned beside a face. Combined with determined expressions (•̀ㅂ•́) and sparkle effects (✧), these emoticons capture the "you can do it" energy that simple 👍 emoji can't match.
These faces serve encouragement and approval. They're not just "okay"—they're "yes, and I believe in you." The added face elements give thumbs-up gestures personality that standalone hand symbols lack.
How to Show Approval
Click any face to copy it. Paste with Ctrl+V (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+V (Mac). Thumbs up faces work for agreement, encouragement, and showing support.
"Going for it! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧" encourages someone's decision. Responding to good news with just "(•̀ᴗ•́)و" says "nice!" without words.
