The growing use of social media has made us incorporate emojis into our written language of words and symbols, in order to better express our emotions. As time goes by, developers strive to generate new designs so that we can communicate better. But the truth is that many times we wrongly assume the meaning of some of them and we attribute to them features that have nothing to do with the purpose for which they were created.

Bright Side has prepared a guide with several emojis and the meaning that we believe they have. On the back of each image, you will find what the intention was when they were created, don’t forget to click on each card!
