Western

[edit]

The emoticon in Western style is written most often from left to right. Thus, most commonly, one will see the eyes on the left, followed by the nose and mouth. Typically, a colon is used for the eyes of a face. However, an equal sign, a number 8, and a capital letter B are also used interchangeably.

Eastern emoticons

[edit]

Eastern emoticons are typically read from top to bottom, with the inclusion of non-Latin characters allowing for additional complexity. Users from East Asia popularized a style of emoticons endemic to their region.[citation needed]
