THE WORD OF THE YEAR. Gemma T. (1 BATX A)

WORD OF THE YEAR 2015 IS...  

For the first time ever the Oxford Dictionaries Word of the Year is a pictograph and not a word. This one is called the “Face with Tears of Joy”.

Emojis are international because everybody can understand them. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know a language. Emojis are little simple pictures that they are so easy to know them. So this is why one emoji has been the word of 2015 because lots of people use it around the world.  Specially the “Face with Tears of Joy” because it’s a happy face with tears in it eyes. It means that you are crying for the laughing. And who doesn’t like this?  One of the most important things in life is being happy. It’s an objective of the majority of people. For this reason it has been so popular.

Personally I use the “Face with tears of Joy” a lot. I think it’s the emoji that I use more often because I love laughing and having a good time and if you use it it’s like you feel so much better.

Firstly it was just used by teenagers and young people but nowadays it doesn’t matter the age. It's used  by everyone.

People who have chosen this emoji for the word of the year said that it has been triplicated since last year, 2014.  They chose the word for how popular it is.


For example two years ago the most popular word was “selfie”. Selfie as same as the emoji of this year are words that they are quiet new and really popular in the society.
