Emoticons are combinations of keyboard symbols used to represent a facial expression that, in the absence of body language, served to draw a receiver's attention to the tenor or temper of a sender's non-verbal communication. E.g. ":)" - Happy
See emojis for unicode (graphical representations) of emoticons and many other symbols.
