Introduction 简介
“Emoji” is a word that everyone in modern times is familiar with, and it seems to be ubiquitous in every digital-related activity. Emoticons are also pictographs of the new era, which are essential tools for people to communicate on instant chatting and social networking platforms. Evolved from emoji or emoticon which served as merely symbolic signs to express feelings of users, another form of emoji called emoji package (literally translated from Chinese) has emerged and become a meme in recent years. As Chinese characteristic emoji spread widely, it even flows to abroad on the Internet. Due to cultural differences, Chinese emoji package encounters misinterpretation in multicultural context.For this reason, this article discusses whether emoji can convey the same message in cross cultural transmission. What are the reasons for the distortion phenomenon of emoji in China and other countries?
1. Development and popularity of emoji
Jimmy Wales (one of the founders of Wikipedia) wrote on social network: "Emoji adds humanity to messages we send."Today, emojis are sweeping over the world. According to the statistics of the global language monitoring system, emoji has become the number one popular word in the world, and has even been included in the English Dictionary of Oxford.According to the United States Swyft Media data, more than 74% Americans often use emoji or stickers, or emoticons in online exchange. They use 96 of the above expressions on average every day. Every day, over 6 billion emojis are sent on the mobile social app. Emojipedia has also been set up. Similar to Wikipedia, emojipedia is an encyclopedia website where one can check the meaning of each emoji. Instagram, an online photo sharing platform used by the most people in the world, that Obama is using is an important site for people to use emoji. Over 50% of the messages on Instagram contain emoji.
Emoji is changing our way of using network language. Since the popularity of emoji in 2011, it has gradually replaced the past popular network words, such as lol, lmao (laugh my ass off) etc. Different from these words, although we use emoji and emoticons in the chat, in fact, when our brains recognize them, it processes them as non-linguistic information, this means that we interpret them as emotional communication similar to interpretation of emotion, tone, gestures, posture, and unlike reading text and listening to language.(责任编辑：cinq)
