《2021年全球表情符号趋势报告》新鲜出炉,“笑哭”表情符号成为全球最流行的表情符号,“点赞”和“红色爱心”表情位列第二、三名。
The “laugh out loud” face is officially the worlds most popular emoji, according to resear⁃chers from Adobe (ADBE) who surveyed 7,000 users across the United States, the United King⁃dom, Germany, France, Japan, Australia, and the Republic of Korea.
The “thumbs up” emoji came in second, followed by the “red heart” emoji. The “wink and kiss” and “sad face with a tear” emojis respec⁃tively was ranked the top five.
The software maker on Thursday released the findings from its 2021 Global Emoji Trend Report ahead of World Emoji Day on Saturday.
Adobes latest emoji trend report also exa⁃mined the three most misunderstood emojis in the world. The “eggplant (茄子)” symbol edged out the “peach” and the “clown” emojis respec⁃tively as the most confusing for users.
The vast majority of emoji users (90%) believed the modern⁃day hieroglyphs (象形符号) make it easier for them to express themselves. Eighty⁃nine percent of respondents said emojis simplify communicating across language barriers. And 67% said they thought people who use emojis are friendlier, funnier and cooler than those who dont.
A slight majority of respondents said they are more comfortable expressing emotions throu⁃gh emojis than talking on the phone or in person. More than half of global emoji users (55%) said using emojis in communications has positively impacted their mental health.
Seventy⁃six percent of those surveyed said emojis are an important communication tool for creating unity, respect and understanding. And 88% said they felt more empathetic towards people who use emojis.
“I am encouraged by these particular statis?tics,” Adobe typeface designer and font developer Paul D. Hunt wrote in a blog post about the study. “Emoji sometimes get criticized for being overly saccharine, but this sweetness is key when it comes to diffusing some of the heaviness of online communication.”
