I often use emoticons while chatting with my pals, not to just make my sentences looks more interesting, but in addition to make my pals have in mind or interpret my feeling or mood at that time when I am talking about a undeniable topic. Below is an instance when I am speaking to my friend. The starting of use of emoticons is about twenty five years ago, when Professor Fahlman came up with an idea where the told his colleagues to add a smiley face, which is simply made up of a few punctuation marks, to the top of a sentence after they were making jokes on the web, and later, emoticons goes popular and evolves into images of graphis with animation, but there are still a large number of people choose to use the old emoticons made up by three characters combining punctuation marks and alphabets Funnell, 2007. In order not to make my pals misinterpret that I am angry or sad, I always add funny emoticons to the sentence to suggest that I am just joking, similar to “XD” meaning giggling, or “:P” meaning sticking the tounge out, and it never fails to liven up the situation while chatting or sending email.
