What’s next, a cowboy emoji? A ninja emoji? But seriously, as much as I like emojis, I kind of feel like they should stick to emotions. Maybe other intangible things. They’re hard to convey verbally (and succinctly), simple concrete nouns are good for a bit of fun and for UI icons, but really not very useful if we’re being honest. Unless you’re texting with a lizard, or my lazy elementary-school niece who shouldn’t really have a phone anyway…

If we add 26 more emojis, one for each letter, we could use them to spell out all sorts of words - emotions, objects, anything!

There are really 26 emoji letters that are used for spelling country codes in the flags, like https://emojipedia.org/regional-indicator-symbol-letter-u

26 emojis? You could do the entire bestiary from the original Rogue with that!

Or you're texting with people whose native language uses a logographic system.
