Pregnant man, troll and melting face: Meet the new emojis | Israel today

2021-09-18T17:52:54.946Z


37 new characters and shapes will be included in the upcoming update • Each time a limited list of additions that express the spirit of the period is approved • Among the rejected proposals - chainsaw, submarine and cooking pot


37 new emojis have been approved for use, which express the spirit of the period in a topical and cultural way.

The new addition includes emojis of a pregnant man as well as a pregnant man, ie someone whose identity is undefined, a troll, a melted face, a weak battery and even a hamsa.

The special consortium that sets every year all those new emojis that will be added to those that already exist and sell most of them, has approved the new addition to the Unicode 14 version that will go into operation soon and will include 838 new emojis in total.

Meet the new emojis,

The consortium that determines each version of those they choose, tries to approve as short a list as possible in order to "keep focus on what is most useful" and as a result they are forced to reject a large number of emojis in requests sent to the committee. If and when they have an additional requirement, which may convince those who decide.

Among those rejected in the upcoming version were a chain saw, submarine and cooking pot.

Most of the existing operating systems on the market adopt the emojis in the new version of Unicode that is coming out and the process takes several months, so if you planned to send someone in line as a pregnant man, you will have to wait a little longer.
