Re: Emoji anomaly

Hi André,

> U+1F321 ➜ U+1F32C do not have Emoji_Presentation property set. Time for me to do some reading to determine why.

From https://www.unicode.org/emoji/charts-5.0/emoji-versions-sources.html <https://www.unicode.org/emoji/charts-5.0/emoji-versions-sources.html>
you can see that these characters came into Unicode as a result of their being in the Webdings/Wingdings set, where they had a prior history of being non-emoji text characters. That is why they have Emoji_Presentation=No by default.

The other Emoji I have tested with Sierra's Chinese Simplified Input Method do not have the variation selector appended. Could someone please check if the same happens with High Sierra
