今天是世界表情符號日！
Today is World Emoji Day!
這項非官方的節日定於每年 7 月 17 日，旨在慶祝這些已成為通用數位語言的繽紛圖示。
Celebrated every year on July 17, this unofficial holiday honors the colorful icons that have become a universal digital language.
此節日由表情符號百科（Emojipedia）創辦人傑瑞米·伯奇（Jeremy Burge）於 2014 年設立，選定這一天是因為它與許多智慧型手機上的日曆圖示相符。
Established in 2014 by Emojipedia founder Jeremy Burge, the date was chosen because it matches the calendar icon found on many smartphones.
表情符號不只是好玩，它們還能填補溝通上的鴻溝，讓我們在文字中傳達語氣與情感。
Beyond just being fun, emojis help bridge communication gaps, allowing us to convey tone and emotion in text.
在這一天，科技公司常會揭曉新的設計，而世界各地的人們也會使用 #WorldEmojiDay 標籤參與討論。
On this day, tech companies often unveil new designs, while people around the world join the conversation using #WorldEmojiDay.
無論你是為了釐清訊息還是單純為文字增添個性，表情符號從根本上改變了我們線上連結的方式。
Whether you are using them to clarify a message or just to add personality to your texts, emojis have fundamentally changed how we connect online.
然而，值得記住的是，對於依賴螢幕閱讀器的使用者來說，表情符號會透過其描述被大聲讀出，因此考量無障礙性是很重要的。
However, it is also worth remembering that for users who rely on screen readers, emojis are read aloud via their descriptions, so keeping accessibility in mind is important.
今天你會使用你最喜歡的表情符號來慶祝嗎？
