Abstract

This study aims to understand the meaning of ???? and ???? emoticons among chat app users. The use of emoticons is very common nowadays, used by people of all ages, from young to old. Emoticons are typically used in various situations to express someone's state or feelings in digital conversations. However, not everyone has the same opinion about the use of emoticons. This research aims to explore the different opinions people have about emoticons. The method used in this research is qualitative, utilizing Google Forms as a tool to collect data from respondents. This Google Forms survey was distributed to students of Universitas Subang, with 37 respondents aged between 18 and 25 years. The results of the study showed that the opinions of certain groups regarding the meaning and effectiveness of emoticon when using online chat applications do not influence other groups. Everyone has their own opinions and beliefs regarding the use of emoticons. Communication is possible with or without emojis, and the meaning of emojis depends on the context and the perspective of the sender and receiver.

Abstract

This research discusses the meaning of ???? and ???? emojis in chat apps. The ???? emoji is often used to express sadness or frustration, while the ???? emoji is often used for dark humor or to express that something is so funny it's "dead". This study aims to explore and reveal the meanings contained in these emojis according to the general views of chat app users. This research uses a qualitative approach with a focus on the description and interpretation of the phenomenon of emoji use. The main data source comes from direct observation of conversations in chat applications, as well as secondary data from related literature. Data collection techniques include participatory observation of emoji use in different contexts and analysis of conversation documentation. The results of this study are expected to provide a deeper understanding of how ???? and ???? emojis are used and interpreted in daily interactions, as well as how their meaning can change depending on the context of the conversation.
