The list of emoji candidates that could be approved by the Unicode Consortium later this year includes a moose, a jellyfish, a shaking head, and more. Emojis are often the true embodiment of the old saying, 'a picture is worth a thousand words.' They are one of the most fun ways of expressing people's feelings online and are often used in lieu of actual words for greater impact. For example, the tears of joy emoji could immediately put a smile on someone's face, while a crying emoji can make people sad or disheartened, based on the underlying message.
Unicode typically approves new emojis every September and is expected to approve Emoji 15 later this year. It is expected to add a slew of new emojis that will be available for widespread use in the coming months. Emoji 14 was approved last September alongside Unicode 14 and brought a ton of new emojis, including most notably, a pregnant man. Some of the other additions include a multi-racial handshake, melting face, saluting face, biting lip, a person with crown, troll, X-Ray, mirror disco ball and more.
