Forensic linguists explore how emojis can be used as evidence in court

Image
Emojis have become ubiquitous in text communication – messages are peppered with smiley faces, hearts and other graphic icons. They were first drawn by graphic designer Shigetaka Kurita, and generated by a Japanese communications firm called NTT DoCoMo in the late 1990s. Now they’re everywhere. But would you be quite so quick to insert an emoji into a message if you thought it might be interpreted as a threat or might offend the receiver? What if that smiley face could land you in court? Or bind you legally to a contract you never formally signed? There’s a growing body of case law from around the world – including the United Kingdom, New Zealand and France – where courts have been called on to interpret emojis as evidence. This, in turn, has seen a rise in academic literature on the subject. That includes research in the field of forensic linguistics, which we both study.

Why do kids call their parents ‘Mama’

why do almost all kids use the same name for their parents? why is it we refer to our parents in this way? Where did it come from and perhaps, more curiously, is there any culture that forgoes this seemingly universal nickname custom for parental figures? All around the world, the words for “mom" are almost the same. Other words aren’t nearly as similar. Take “dog,” for example.

The names for mothers and fathers are remarkably similar around the world. Chinese - Mama. Zulu - Umama. Arabic - um. Swedish - Mamma. Hungarian - Mamma. Swahili - Mama. Hindi - Mam. Afrikaans - Ma. Ancient Egyptian - Mut. Welsh - Mam. Quechua - Mama. Maori - Mama. As you can clearly see from this list, there’s a very pecu...
