Emoji are now ubiquitous in our interactions on social media. But
how do we use them to convey meaning? And how do they function in
social bonding? This unique book provides a comprehensive framework
for analysing how emoji contribute to meaning-making in social
media discourse, alongside language. Presenting emoji as a visual
paralanguage, it features extensive worked examples of emoji
analysis, using corpora derived from social media such as Twitter
and TikTok, to explore how emoji interact with their linguistic
co-text. It also draws on the author's extensive work on social
media affiliation to consider how emoji function in social bonding.
The framework for analysing emoji is explained in an accessible
way, and a glossary is included, detailing each system and feature
from the system networks used as the schemas for undertaking the
analysis. It is essential reading for anyone wishing to investigate
the role of emoji in digital communication.
