Language The Hanmoji Handbook: Your Guide to the Chinese Language through Emoji

This illustrated handbook explores connections between Chinese writing and emoji. It introduces Han characters, also called hanzi, alongside Chinese idioms, using images to explain how meaning can be communicated visually. The book considers an unexpected resemblance between a writing system with ancient origins and the symbols used by smartphone users today: both can use pictures to convey ideas. Playful illustrations accompany the comparisons, and supplementary material includes a bibliography and an index.
