Aw: Re: Thoughts on working with the Emoji Subcommittee (was Re: Thoughts on Emoji Selection Process)

What about languages that don't have or don't use personal pronouns. Their speakers might find their use odd or awkward.

The same for many other grammatical concepts: they work reasonably well if used by someone from a related language, or for linguists trained in general concepts, but languages differ so much in what they express explicitly that if any native speaker transcribes the features that are exposed (and not implied) in their native language it may not be what a reader used to a different language is expecting to see.
