Among the new symbols we find a ninja, bubble tea, a heart and lungs of realistic appearance, an “Italian hand”, the transgender symbol, tamale food, a boomerang, a coin, a dodo, a beaver, and even a matrioshka.
World Emoji Day is celebrated since 2014 every July 17. Emojis are the symbols that allow us to express an idea or an emotion together with our text message and which have become common elements in our daily communication.
