An emoticon is a symbol or combination of symbols used to convey emotional content in written or message form. The word is a portmanteau of the English words emotion (or emote) and icon.

Dodge’s Manual in 1908 documented the reintroduction of "love and kisses" as the number 88. Gajadhar and Green comment
