Japanese 2Byte Smileys VS. The American 1byte Smileys

kawaii yo nee~~

Smileys. You see them everyday, you see them everywhere, everyone and anyone can do one. But what about text? A normal letter input to the computer, typed from a keyboard, but can we see smileys using letters? Of course we can~! =3 We can see all kinds of smileys in the internet, msn, emails and in chatrooms. We see these all the time, but did you know that American smileys are meant to be read horizontally [ex; ] and Japanese smileys are read vertically [ex: ~~~ヾ(＾∇＾)おはよー♪ means good morning; おはよ/ Ohayo] LoL well of course you knew that~!! I’m just blogging about this because 1: I’m bored and 2: I found something interesting XD haha =3
