NEW YORK -
Finally, an emoji to represent us all is coming soon: An exhausted face with bags under its eyes.
It鈥檚 one of eight new emojis that will appear on smartphones and computers next year, which also include a root vegetable, a harp, a leafless tree, a shovel, a purple splatter, and a flag for the remote island in the English Channel called Sark.
Emojipedia, a popular emoji reference site, released sample images a few months ago. Recently, the Unicode Consortium, the non-profit that oversees global emoji standards and new releases approved the new emoji lineup.
Smartphone users can start using the new emojis across 鈥渧arious digital devices over the next few months and throughout 2025,鈥 .
The exhausted emoji face had the the 鈥渕ost anticipated鈥 emoji in the World Emoji Awards receiving more than 60per centof the vote. The splatter and shovel came in second place and third place, respectively.
Although those might be goofy, the leafless tree is meant to raise awareness of drought and climate change, according to Brian Baihaki, who submitted it to the Unicode Consortium.
鈥淒rought is a natural part of climate cycle, for million of years trees have adapted to these harsh condition,鈥 Baihaki . 鈥淏ut the climate is changing, drought become more frequent, severe, and even spread to other places in short amount of time.鈥
Different operating services, such as Apple iOS and Alphabet鈥檚 Android, and companies put their own spin on the emoji designs.
The interpretations such as Google鈥檚 misplacement of foam somehow hovering above a half-full glass of beer, and the jumbling of ingredients (with cheese on the bottom) on its hamburger emoji. Both were corrected.
