車牌上的表情符號
Emojis are usually reserved for text messages or chatting online, but now some drivers will be able to add them onto their car number plates.
表情符號通常出現在短信息或網上聊天內容中，不過如今，一部分司機還可以把表情符號用在車牌上。
In an unprecedented move, drivers in Queensland will soon be able to add the much-loved symbols onto their vehicle plates from March 1st.
從3月1日起，澳大利亞昆士蘭州的司機將能把這些備受喜愛的表情符號加到車牌上，這是史無前例的舉措。
The unique idea is being rolled out by Personalised Plates Queensland (PPQ) and will allow motorists to choose from five emojis.
昆士蘭個性化車牌公司想出了這個獨特創(chuàng)意，并提供了5個表情符號供司機挑選。
Drivers can pick from either a laugh out loud face, a wink face, a sunglasses-wearing emoji, a heart-eyes expression, or simply just a smile.
司機可以從大笑、眨眼、戴太陽鏡、愛心眼、微笑這五個表情符號中選擇。
Notably only the positive appearing emojis have been made available by the company.
值得注意的是，該公司提供的表情符號都是積極正面的。
'For quite some time we've seen that you can support your favourite team or your favourite town with a symbol on your number plate,' RACQ Dr Rebecca Michael told 7News.
昆士蘭州皇家汽車俱樂部的瑞貝卡·邁克爾博士告訴7News網站說：“過去很長一段時間，我們見過人們用車牌上的符號來支持最愛的球隊或小鎮(zhèn)。”
'And using an emoji is no different,' she added.
她說：“車牌上加表情符號和這些做法沒什么不同。”
But drivers will have to pay for the privilege of adding an emoji to their number plate.
不過司機們得花上一筆錢，才能享有把表情符號加到車牌上的特權。
The emoji additions will set a driver back anything from $160 to $500.
在車牌上加表情符號需要司機花費160美元到500美元(1080到3378元人民幣)。
