intransitive verb : to give expression to emotion especially in chating. An "emote" is tool used in a chat forum that is a way of expressing a feeling or an action in text form. You start an emote by typing "/me" (without the quotation marks) in local chat or instant messaging forum. The host allows you to use a colon instead of ‘/me’, which is a technical way of saving your keystrokes. The colon that normally appears after your name in a chat doesn’t appear in the chat and is therefore describing your action, rather than showing the typed words that normally show that you are "speaking". It will present your feelings or actions in the third person.
Let's say you just told me a funny joke. I could type "hahahaha!", in which case an emote (i-ˈmōt ) in the chat window will look like this:
Username: hahahahaha!
Or, I could type the emote, "/me laughs!", in which case the chat window looks like this:
Username laughs!
Emotes can be fairly lengthy.
Example; We are at the beach and decide to go swimming.
Example:
Username strips of her top and pants, revealing all skin, and runs laughing into the ocean.
Username: hahahahaha!

Someone who uses AI to mimic vulnerability or emotional depth in personal essays, crafting stories that sound heartfelt but are entirely fabricated. This person submits essays that feel emotionally manipulative or AI-scripted.
She wrote about overcoming adversity, but the story didn’t match her life. That’s Emotion Emulator behavior.
