Common Misunderstandings of 🪓

Misunderstanding: Only for violence

While an axe can be used as a weapon, its primary and most common association is as a tool for practical tasks like chopping wood. Its use in violent contexts is less common in everyday emoji usage.

Tip: Use context to clarify if you mean a tool or a weapon. For violence, other emojis might be more appropriate.

Misunderstanding: It's a gardening tool

While it can be used for some heavy-duty garden tasks like root removal, it's not a typical gardening tool like a shovel or rake. It's more for forestry or heavy wood processing.

Tip: For general gardening, use emojis like 🪴 (potted plant) or 🌷 (tulip) to convey a softer, more typical gardening context.
