Waving Hand: Medium-Light Skin Tone Emoji
What does the Waving Hand: Medium-Light Skin Tone emoji mean?
A medium-light skin-toned hand with motion lines that show it’s waving—hence the name. Use it to say hello or goodbye, or, more sharply, to signal that someone should go away.
A waving hand in a slightly darker shade than the light-skin version. It carries the same meaning and uses — you can use it to say hello! or to wave goodbye with a smiling face that mimics a wave.
People often choose this skin tone in summer, when the sun gives the skin a light tan.
