Kaomoji
Literally, this is face letters , But often also referred to as the Japanese emoticons. This not only took the letter, but the signs of the full gamut of characters, Japanese characters ja, Greece, Russia, dingbats and other things you can do various kinds of horizontal faces. Smiley cat =^.^= classic example is easy, but look for the network as kaomoji dictionary will reveal hundreds, if not thousands, kaomoji representing almost every sense, or you can think of forever, and a good number can not be t!
I find it interesting that there are many, many articles out there about how the West smilies like :-) come on, but very little has been done to uncover the history of Japanese kaomoji. As far as I can determine, is a Korean man in Japan in early 1986 a proposal (^_^) smileys, and Japanese nuclear scientist who comes to (~_~) lot at the same time.
Emoji
Moving to step evolutionary level and we get emoji, literally picture letters . It was first popularized in Japan, cellphones, displays a small icon on the characters in the email. Now almost every mobile on the full hundred of these icons, and must display the number of users in Japan, that even if people don t write them, most likely communications will be sent an email full of them! They also infect the Japanese blog, and many other punctuation in their text. Some phone providers even animate the status of the flying machine, which brings us round last long.
Decomail
Decomail actually comes from the English language, if the short to decoration mail . Decorated mail grammar would be more correct, but the official full name is the decor. This should be very familiar, since many readers only marketing name for the HTML-based email on the phone, making it easier to scroll through text decoration elements such as banners, entered the picture, natural harmony, and color selection. One of them is a manifestation of the effective use of animation decomail what emoji, by allowing a small animation email introduced, with some phones come loaded with animations counted in the thousands! However, these images not only for a small animation emoji ( kaoani - Animation face - is one manifestation, and another time to talk about at a later date), but also can be important and can even rate with a simple script.
As mentioned at the beginning of this section, is decomail HTML mail, which means that yes, you can send the message, the foreign friends directly from the hands of the Japanese! You can also sometimes accept it, but as the size and limitations on the other side is very strong, there is less job security.
So, what I hope to give you a sense of how the Japanese seasoning their mobile mail. I ve not least a chance that Google's Gmail, you can display emoji, or that Apple and Google are trying to standardize emoji in Unicode, and even 2ch emoticons, but hopefully you now know the definition kaomoji II, emoji and decomail if they heard the conversation.
