Understandably, it can be difficult for people to keep up with the hip new lingo. And so, some newspapers and local news channels have taken to explaining to parents exactly what their kids mean when they send their friend an eggplant emoji.

It's not ice cream either.
Others were just as amused by this latest attempt.
No one gets the camel one.
Oh dear.
