What are Emojis?
We have all been taken by the emoji craze. It has become part of our texting culture. Sometimes, we don’t even use texts to tell our loved ones how we feel. A couple of emojis can relay the same feelings that our texts should. But what are emojis? And why do we love using them so much? In simple terms, emojis are just pictograms. Or smileys that we use to communicate. They help us to fill in the emotional cues in our conversations.
Sometimes, a blank text can be misread. But, with the help of our emojis, we can convey exactly what we mean without having to explain anything more than what was written. Using emojis has helped us to avoid unnecessary communication breakdowns. Plus, it can help to change the tone of a text that has the potential to spiral downhill. The great news is that our emoji coloring pages help us to see the many different types of emojis that we have. The fun part is that our emojis are full of colors. And it makes it easy to tell the difference between them.
