minus Emoji

Minus sign is often used to indicate subtraction or negation in mathematical or financial contexts, and figuratively to show removal or reduction of something, such as subtracting a task from a to-do list or reducing the intensity of a situation. Literally, the minus sign is a mathematical symbol used to represent the operation of subtraction, as in 5 - 3 = 2. In slang, it can also be used to express a negative or dismissive attitude, such as saying "minus the drama" to mean without the unnecessary conflict.
