The coronavirus pandemic has taken a hit at emojis.
新冠疫情影响了emoji。
The Unicode Consortium, a non-profit that oversees emoji standards and is responsible for new releases, said it's delaying its new batch of emojis by six months from March to September 2021 because of fallouts from coronavirus.
统一码联盟是一家非营利性机构，监督emoji标准，并负责发布新品。该联盟说受新冠病毒影响，新一批emoji将推迟6个月发布，从2021年3月推迟到9月。
Emojis are typically approved in January before they're available across devices in September, the Consortium said, which means iPhone and Android users won't see new emojis in 2021.
统一码联盟称，emoji通常要在1月份通过审批，然后在9月份才可以在手机上下载。这就意味着苹果和安卓手机用户在2021年看不到新款emoji了。
Under the current circumstances we've heard that our contributors have a lot on their plates at the moment and decided it was in the best interests of our volunteers and the organizations that depend on the standard to push out our release date, Mark Davis, president of the Consortium, said in a statement.
统一码联盟主席Mark Davis在一份声明中说：目前这种情况下，我们听说投稿人现在都很忙，所以决定推迟发布对志愿者和依赖我们的标准的组织来说才是最好的选择。
However, this doesn't impact the release of the new emojis like the transgender flag, the gender-neutral Santa Claus and others that were announced in January. The new set, part of Unicode's 13.0 standard, includes 117 new animated characters and will be released this fall.
但这不会影响曾在1月份宣布要发布的新emoji，如变性标志、中性圣诞老人等。新款emoji是统一码联盟13.0标准的一部分，包括117个新的动画角色，将于今年秋季发布。
