Emoji are being adopted at a faster rate than any other 'language' - and eight in 10 of us now use the colourful symbols to communicate. 与其他任何“语言”相比,表情符号的采用速度要快得多,现在80%的人在使用多种多样的表情符号进行交流。 To plot this popularity, a linguistics professor has conducted the first 'Emoji IQ' study looking at how the pictures are used and by whom. 为了证明表情符号的流行度,一位语言学教授进行了一项名为“表情符号智商”的研究,旨在探寻是什么人,在如何使用这类表情图片,这类研究尚属首次。 And she has created an online test to determine how well you know your 'confused' face from your 'angry' face to determine if you're an emoji master. 语言学教授创建了一个在线测试,看受测者是否能区分“困惑”的表情及“愤怒”的表情,以确定受测者是否是一位表情符号达人。 The test contains 10 questions that ask users to identify the meaning of certain symbols, and how they would write sentences using emoji. 测试包含10个问题,皆在让受试者识别某些表情符号的含义以及如何运用表情符号编写句子。 At the end of the test they are given a percentage score - rather than an IQ score as the test's name suggests - and the aim is to be an Emoji Master with a perfect score. |
