    ใ€Œ็ฌ‘ใ€ is read as "xiร o" in Standard Chinese, but ใ€Œ่‰ใ€ is read as "cวŽo", not "hua". The characters mean "laughter" and "grass" respectively.

    In Japanese the characters would be read as "wara" and "kusa" in this context. They're basically just the equivalents to "lol" and "lmao" in that language. The backstory behind "kusa" in particular is pretty funny.

    Thanks. Yeah, I ended up looking out up and I was confused because it was either grass, but also fuck.

    I didn't even consider the Japanese meaning, lol.
