Chinese oracle bone inscriptions(甲骨文)over 3, 000 years old are now widely used as emojis(表情符号)by young WeChat users, thanks to a person who made them closer to people's life.

People think these ancient words are cute and humorous now. "The ancient words are not as cool and far as they are supposed to be. They could totally serve people's needs for online expression," said the creator Chen Nan.

The 46-year-old teacher of fine arts at Tsinghua University has been working to make oracle bone inscriptions into emojis. For example, the word for "zui', which means "drunk" in English, was created to look like a stumbling(摇摇晃晃行走的)person. Such emojis have been well accepted by WeChat users.

To make more people understand this old language, Chen made them on the postcards. He has also put them together with cartoons. A cartoon video with oracle bone inscriptions created by him was watched 31 million times and shared 140, 000 times.

It's fun for people to use them as emojis. In 2017, the ancient font(字体)was included into the font library under his hard work to let the ancient words walk into people's life.

Now the library has 3, 500 words. But Chen's research on the project still continues, as he plans to enlarge the library to 7, 000 words. In the future, he will put the ancient words into practice in education and the development of games and apps.
