π« School emoji
[skool ih-moh-jee]
ΊΪΑΟΝψ doesΒ π« School emoji mean?
The school emoji depicts a building with windows and usually two or more floors. There is a clock tower in the center, and Microsoft and Google’s buildings are in bright primary colors.
It’s mainly used to reference schools or education … with other school-themed emoji like theΒ blue book or theΒ red apple.
Where does π« School emoji come from?
The school emoji was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015. Since we’re on the subject of education … we’re pretty sure the creation of emojis had little to do with the field of semiotic theory (which is all about the value of symbols and signs in communication). Or, did it?
Microsoft’s version shows a quaint, smaller building with one level, but most show 2-story buildings in earth tones with no flag poles.
