What Does the 🦛 hippopotamus Emoji Mean?

一只灰色的河马，身体呈桶状，四肢粗短，有一个巨大的圆圆的口鼻，通常以欢快的侧面示人。河马 🦛 捕捉的是这样一种生物：看起来温和又胖乎乎，却名列非洲领地意识最强、最危险的动物之一。在网上它带有双重含义：既是河中巨兽的原始力量，也是对任何又大又圆、萌得让人想抱的东西或人的爱称。

About hippopotamus Emoji

Usage: 人们用 🦛 来发动物园之旅、野外探险抓拍和野生动物冷知识，但同样常用来调侃胖乎乎的宠物、毛绒玩具，或大吃一顿后的朋友。它出现在提及游戏 “饿饿河马”（Hungry Hungry Hippos）的玩笑里，也和水、泥巴或打哈欠张大嘴的幽默搭得很好。

河马于 2018 年加入 Unicode 11.0，属于一批新动物表情。一个有趣的插曲：尽管体型庞大，河马其实并不会游泳或漂浮，而是在水下沿着河床奔跑、蹬地前进；而经典的桌游 “饿饿河马” 于 1978 年首次亮相。
