All of us surely use it! I'm talking about emoticons, but, do you know that Japanese Emoticons exist too? Japanese Emoticons are cute and useful!

    

Emoticons are stylized reproductions of human expression through the use of punctuations, letters, dots, etc.

In Japan there are a huge number of emoticons! That's because  Japanese Emoticons are "built" using standard occidental punctuation, and other characters peculiar to Japanese language.

Here's a little list:
