double exclamation mark
double exclamation mark, 두 개의 느낌표
Two exclamation points are used to emphasize very strong emotions or important content. It's a symbol frequently seen in text messages and on social media.
Young people, especially, use it a lot to express emotions like surprise, joy, or anger. However, using it too much can make others uncomfortable, so it's good to use it in moderation.
느낌표 두 개는 매우 강한 감정이나 중요한 내용을 강조할 때 사용해요. 문자나 SNS에서 자주 볼 수 있는 기호예요.
특히 젊은 사람들은 놀람, 기쁨, 화남 같은 감정을 표현할 때 많이 써요. 하지만 너무 많이 쓰면 상대방이 불편할 수 있으니 적당히 사용하는 것이 좋아요.
This symbol has been used since the typewriter era of the 1960s, and its use has become even more widespread in the digital age. In particular, it has become an important tool for expressing the tone of a sentence or the intensity of an emotion in online communication.
Interestingly, the frequency of exclamation point use varies across cultures. In cultures where emotional expression is more open, such as Korea and Japan, multiple exclamation points are often used, but in Western cultures, they tend to be used more sparingly. In business emails, it's considered polite to use only one.
