Emoticons

An Emoticon is the word combination of «emotion» and «icon». With emoticons can a person express her / his feelings, mood or describe a situation. For example :‑) is happy face. The advantage of emoticons is that everyone can create his / her own emoticons and every emoticon looks on every device more similar than an Unicode Emoji. There is no limit to the creativity of users. Compared to Emojis, especially from Unicode, those Emojis are chosen by Unicode Consortium. Full members have greatest influence on new smartphone Emojis.
To create new emoticons you need only to use letters, numbers, punctuation marks, typographical marks or symbols. For example: Smiley :-] includes colon eyes, hyphen-minus nose and square bracket mouth.
Japanese Emoticons called Kaomoji (Kao= Face, Moji=sign or character) use the Japanese letters (Katakana). Example of a Japanese Kaomoji: Worried face (^_^メ) contains caret eyes, underscore mouth with Japanese Me (kana, in katakana) in round brackets. The number 3 is used for kissing face (*3).
