What are the differences between Chinese memes and foreign memes?

It's not as abundant as we are. , according to my various at home and abroadSocial softwareI've been on the waves for a long time, so I want to know a little bit. Most foreign envoys have never seen it before, and Asian countries such as the Philippines and Thailand that they know use QQ simple expressions similar to this.

The same is an emoji, and the types and meanings of emojis vary from country to country - Japanese and Korean emojis are more delicate and more static. European and American emojis are more orthodox and not cute, but they are very practical. China's facial image is more "down-to-earth", "cute", "cheap" and "grassroots".

I think my current young people are more trendy, and I won't say that they are the kind of people who don't understand foreign cultures, so there should be no difference between Chinese and foreign emojis.

Emojis have an exclusive noun in foreign countries, called meme, which is basically the same as the fixed form of emojis in China, and meme existed long before the emergence of several popular emojis in China, and its common content is much more extensive.

I am also often swiped by foreign emojis on Facebook, but I see that foreign emojis are basically ** plus text, and there are few gifs.

In principle, I think it's pretty much the same, but there are a few slight differences depending on the local habits and cultural differences.

I think our memes are funny, sometimes puns intended, but foreign memes are usually literal.

They basically don't have a culture of memes. , the only similar culture is emoji and meme, meme and domestic "god spit" and "stalk" meaning is almost the same.

Most countries do not have this culture, only South Korea and Thailand also have many people who like to make emojis, but they are not as popular as in China.

The only foreign meme I've seen is a white man winking: his eyes are full of "what?" "Seriously?

Domestic emojis all use Chinese characters, and foreign Chinese characters are generally domestic.

Chinese memes are mainly blown, and foreign ones are mainly derogatory (pun intended).

It has to be said that China's culture of emojis is broad and profound.

Our memes are more down-to-earth and more. emmm mouth.

I want a small meme.

No. and we useHieroglyphssystem. Our ability to recognize image symbol information is obviously stronger than that of other speech and writing nations.

It is our tradition to communicate with pictorial symbols. There are also abroadMemes, but not as abundant as ours.

Although emojis are not a Chinese invention, emoji culture has become a popular culture in China. Social software for almost all young people.

Emoji culture is a mainstream culture that has emerged with the increase of online social communication. A person's emoji is his hidden true self, and the country's emoji can be seen in a country's emoji. Sometimes, emojis express undecipherable real thoughts and feelings, and the end of words and words is the space for emojis.

Introduce. Memes are the language of the web.

A kind of evolution, its emergence and popularity are related to its specific "living environment". Its pursuit of eye-catching, novelty, scherzo and other effects is in line with the young people's personality and funny psychology.

The reason why the Envy Sakura Love Bag can be spread on a large scale is because it makes up for the boredom of text communication and the weakness of inaccurate attitude expression, and effectively improves the communication efficiency. Some emojis have the ability to alternate text, which can also save time and type. With the widespread use of smartphones and the massive use of social apps, emojis have appeared frequently in people's online chat conversations.

Emojis, this magical thing is commonly found in China's forum platforms and social software. Although emojis are not unique to China, they must be the most unique in China. In foreign countries, the characters of emojis are usually public figures and **bigwigs, such as heads of state, **, etc.

In China, in addition to public figures, more emojis are mainly virtual anime images and abstract characters. Especially the young generation in China, who have their own set of emojis in their mobile phones, and daily chats are inseparable from emojis. These memes aren't just for fun, they can express your emotions, attitudes and thoughts more expressively, and make it easier for the other person to understand what you're thinking.

But when it comes to rising to the cultural level, I don't think memes are enough.

In ancient China, there was a precedent for using poems to express feelings, and we might as well regard them as today's emojis, which are not only expressive and interesting, but more importantly, have connotation and taste. Although the meme is also interesting, the connotation is relatively insufficient.

In addition, memes often have the effect of easing the atmosphere, and choosing a suitable emoji can quickly narrow the distance between the two sides and allow the conversation to go on instead of stopping there.

Of course, memes are not without their drawbacks. Some people's chats rely too much on memes, which can also cause certain problems, such as not being able to chat without memes. This is a real phenomenon, and the abuse of memes reduces our ability to express ourselves, which is a problem that needs to be paid attention to.

Some people joke that emojis can also be exported as part of Chinese culture, which is a very interesting point of view, so let's look forward to the further development of emoji culture.

Memes have taken over the social networking platforms of young people in China, especially the post-90s. For some post-90s generations, language and text communication have been replaced by emoji fighting charts. They will send a lot of memes, and they will compete to see who has the most memes and the most interesting.

China's post-90s generation and their elders grew up in a completely different environment. In a world that is interconnected with the Internet and a sea of different voices, a new youth subculture has emerged, challenging the core ideology that has previously dominated the city, and opening up space for stronger individualism and innovative thinking.

Young people use emojis to establish an exclusive expression and communication system with a unique aesthetic and value system.

In many ways, the Internet has given them the means to construct a new cultural identity. Because of this, memes can win the love of young people.

Traditional Chinese social interaction pays special attention to etiquette, and people's every move is regulated by it, from how they dress and sit to how they get along with their elders. Needless to say, young people don't like these red tapes.

Online chats generally lack the context and emotional cues that we are accustomed to in real life, such as facial expressions, intonation, and pauses in speech.

In response, the Chinese have responded by using funny memes. Clever use of memes can accurately convey the mood of the speaker without creating social misunderstandings that can lead to tension and awkwardness.

1. The popular herd mentality makes everyone start to express their feelings.

At the beginning, the emojis were all funny characters in some TV movies or **, after the production of some ps gods, they were quoted by all of us, and there was less official participation, everyone was able to express what they wanted to express at the time from the emojis, if this was only one person, in fact, everyone would not adapt to it quickly, mainly because many people used it, and it began to become popular, and the popular herd psychology of human beings caused many people to start playing this, and I didn't understand it at first, Later, it became popular after becoming familiar with it.

Second, the humorous elements of memes are more expressive than words.

The humorous elements contained in the emoji pack are difficult to express in words, which is why so many emojis are used, playing text, even if your writing skills are strong, it takes a lot of time, and a lot of pen and ink can tell a sentence with deep and humor, but the expression only needs a pair of ** on the line, who is superior and who is inferior, you can understand it by comparison, of course, the text still has its own unique effect, but when chatting online, sometimes there are fewer official elements, and you can easily talk, Therefore, emojis can also play the role of partial alternative text.

Now the international network is very developed, will play a certain role in communication, each country can communicate with each other, the gap between countries will be less and less, with the development of the times there are a lot of emerging elements, emoji is one of them, each country has its own emoji, China also has its own emoji, very cute and witty, why Americans understand emoji as well as Chinese? I think this should be explained from the ideological and cultural aspects of the Chinese people, and I will explain them one by one below.

First, the thinking of the state is different.

China's current national minds are very open and free, everyone almost has their own thoughts, so they will appear very individual, it is because of this free and open Internet atmosphere that they have their own different understandings of emojis, some think that it means this, some people think it means that, which will lead to China's understanding space becomes very broad, and the way of thinking of Americans will be relatively simple compared to China, so they will not have many different understandings.

Second, the culture is different.

China's culture pays attention to diversity, which can accommodate many different cultures to develop together, a hundred flowers bloom, and a hundred schools of thought contend, while the United States is not this kind of culture, they advocate a single culture, and believe that culture should have a long-term implementation, so there will be certain differences in this aspect of culture, so China and the United States will have certain differences in this regard, so the understanding of emojis will also be different in some aspects, and the understanding of the United States will be more single than China. Their too monolithic culture limits their thinking, resulting in their understanding of memes not as flexible as the Chinese, hence the argument.

Culture pays attention to diversity, and the culture of the United States is not as diverse as China's and is not as flexible as China's thinking, so the understanding of meme culture is far less than that of China.

I think this should have a lot to do with our Chinese dedication to star chasing, Americans definitely don't, we Chinese are so fanatical about star chasing.

Because Americans are more straightforward, and English is not as broad and profound as Chinese culture, it is impossible to express subtle or metaphorical moods.

Because there are many more Chinese netizens than in the United States, and if there are more people, the creativity in this area is much stronger, and a large number of emojis are generated on our Internet every day.

The expressions of Tom and Jerry in the animated cat and mouse made by Americans decades ago are very magical and representative, and the variety is also very rich, but it is rare to hear that Americans use these wonderful expressions to make emojis, which is indeed very surprising, and it can be seen from the expressions in the cat and mouse that Americans have a deep understanding of the expressions of the characters and are very interesting, but they have not developed a meme culture.
