You might often use emojis(表情符号) when you talk to your friends online. But did you know when emojis came into our lives?
Before emojis, emoticons(颜文字) first appeared. Scott Fahlman was a teacher at Carnegie Mellon University, US. On Sept 19, 1982, he made history by posting": —)" online. Guinness(吉尼斯) World Records called it the" first digital (数字) emoticon".
Over the past 40 years, emoticons and later emoji s became central to our online chats(聊天). GIFs and memes(表情包) also appeared. Now there are 3,600 emoji s for us to show our feelings, according to CNN.
Emojis are like our body language online. When we can't find the right words, emoji s can help. They make our chats more understandable. According to a 2017 study, emojis help us get the same happiness from online talks that we get from talking in person. Our brain sees them as language.
Emoji s change, too! Unicode brings new emoji s every year. And it cares about race (种族), gender(性别) and other things. In 2015, for example, it brought out emoji s with different skin tones(肤色). In 2016, emoji s about different jobs came out, with women's versions(版本) of them.
