There's two types of people in the world; those who use emoji and those who do not. While some may feel their existence is killing the English language, there is no denying their popularity. 

Emoji specialist Jeremy Burge set up Emojipedia back in 2014 to log every emoji, along with its definition. 

“The first Emojipedia was a bit tongue in cheek,” says Mr Burge. “I had the official descriptions – it seemed useful but a bit of fun.

“Within a year or so, I turned that around. I’m aware that millions of people use it as a resource, so it has to be accurate. We have to make sure that we’re getting it right.”

At present, there's 1,394 emoji, not including modified emojis, or sequences. Users can visit Emojipedia to see the names and definitions of each one.
