About this deal

Quiet as a church” – very quiet, like a church where people are expected to be respectful and hushed

She uttered a ‘Sh!’ of such significance that Grayce instinctively lowered her voice. ‘Mrs. Molloy!’ ‘Sh!’ Grayce might have retorted that she had sh-ed and that if she sh-ed any further she could become inaudible. Quiet as a feather” – very quiet, like a feather that is so light and delicate that it makes no noise when it falls Now what is interesting are the examples the OED gives. The first is from P. G.

Quiet as a sleeping kitten” – very quiet, like a kitten that is peacefully asleep and making no noise

When restricting ourselves to the English phoneme repertoire, this leaves us with fff, hhh, sss, shh and thh (IPA: f, h, s, ʃ, θ). Of these, hhh is confusable with abnormal breathing and (in my personal opinion) fff, sss and thh stand out more against ambient sound than shh, which is acustically similar to white noise. I understand this to mean that Ainsley is not stuttering but shushing "him" through a prolonged sh. Quiet as a whisper in a snowstorm” – very quiet, like a whisper that is barely audible over the sound of a snowstorm.

Tell people to keep quiet or to keep things a secret, share the Shushing Face emoji to let him or her know you mean business!

It is used to describe silence, quiet, secrecy and discreteness, or to create a sense of buzz and anticipation for a secret or surprise.

Quiet as a whisper in the woods” – very quiet, like a whisper that is barely audible in the peaceful, secluded setting of the woods When to use ssh, or shhh? On average, the shhh meaning grows stronger when you add more h’s to the end of it. The additional h’s create a longer sound and generate a bigger impact than the usual “ssh.’ Share the Shushing emoji when you need to hush an angry person, or when someone is about to spread a terrible secret. If you don’t want to hear anymore from a certain person, share the Shushing emoji to tell them in a more civilized way to shut up!
