A new emoji(表情符号)is getting popular among both Chinese and Western WeChat users,but they use it for different reasons.The"666"emoji recently came out on WeChat.It shows a smirking(得意的) face that holds up the Chinese hand sign for"6"with the number"666"shown next to it.
Most Chinese people know that this emoji is supposed to have a positive meaning.After all,the Chinese character for "six" is pronounced the same way as "liu",which means"things are going smoothly".There's also the proverb "liuliu dashun" in China.It is used to give good wishes to friends or relatives.
But in some Western countries,"666"has a very different meaning.It is said to be the "Mark of the Beast",a symbol that the devil(恶魔) forces people to show their loyalty (忠诚) to him.
That's why some people consider"six"to be a symbol of darkness and rebellion (反叛).It is especially popular among heavy metal bands(重金属乐队) and their fans. ▲ No one really takes it seriously in modern times.
As a heavy metal fan who is also interested in Chinese culture,I like the new emoji for many reason.I can send it to either my Chinese or Western friends and get different reactions(反应). This makes it fun for me to use.Just don't be surprised if you get a strange reaction from Westerners if you send it to them!
