Abstract

Emoji is a visual language that has appeared as a new and evolving form of communication among individuals across the globe. This research paper concentrates on how emoji became or became the new language of communication and what are its impact on people. This language has become increasingly popular over the last few years due to its versatility, its ability to convey emotions and express complex ideas, and its ability to transcend language barriers. The emergence and popularity of emojis have promoted the idea that images can be just as effective as words in conveying the intended message. However, critics argue that this communication lacks the depth and nuance of traditional written or spoken language. Despite the debate, the use of emoji as a language of communication is growing rapidly, with new emoji sets being created every year. This abstract highlights the importance of understanding the role of emoji being the advanced language of communication, which presents opportunities and challenges to effective communication in this digital age. Emojis are used by millions of people around the world to convey a wide range of emotions, ideas, and messages. They have been embraced by people of all ages and are becoming the new and evolving language of communication. In verbal communication, people rely on expressions, gestures voice’s tone to interpret e meaning. Emojis provide similar visual cues in digital communication
