In digital communication, emojis are becoming ubiquitous ideograms everywhere. The widespread use of emojis and emoticons in the new millennium have attracted the attention of a number of people round the globe with the concern for its study of semantic and pragmatic content.The maximum use of Emojis and emoticons in a few years have raised the question of their reliability with respect to the proto- writing system of communication. This research tends to examine the power of emojis in becoming a standard tool for communication by replacing the alphabetic syllabary of any language. This research focuses on the comparison of written language of Egypt, called the hieroglyphs. During the ancient period, these hieroglyphs were the only way to written communication. Now the question here is to look at how Emoji and Emoticons follow the same evolution. Examining this process will help to find out the level of conversion of Emoji icons to a standard writing system. This research mainly focuses on the semiotics of Emoji and Emoticons, where meaning and comfort are generated in the production of multiple connotations and denotations simultaneously. This research is performed through a quantitative process, using the Saussurian tradition of semiotics and semiology, and to justify the point of this particular study on Emoji and Emoticons, "Messages, Signs and Meaning: A Textbook in Semiotics" and The Communication of Marcel Denesi (2016) the theory has been integrated.
