    hieroglyphs form complete languages and are not just a set of emotion symbols. Probably there’s one or two that are emotions but I somehow doubt that the stone writings that endure contain any personal expressions of emotion.

    Emoji don’t only depict emotions…

        What emotion does 🧺 convey? I don’t see anyone saying that emojis are a complete language, but they do convey more than just emotions.
