One thing that I have also noticed about some emoji and the descriptors that are attached to them is that some of the actual visuals do not quite match what has been associated with them for us screen-reader users. One example is the emoji that we hear as "face with tears of joy" because sighted people describe it as a laughing face. Maybe Brian V. can comment? -Laurie --------------------------------------------

A lot of them are faces, such as smiling, frowning, surprised, and so on), but many of them are just normal objects as well, peppers, egg plants, (which the teens use to represent male anatomy), and other normal everyday items. There are emojis for darned near anything you'd ever want to communicate, which is why so many folks use them. My daughter is especially good at creating emojis out of clay, and for a while, I had several of them on my desk, though it was a bit tough to tell which ones were which, since the faces were very similar.
