Second is more readable.
Btw lazy; why can "second" be "zweite" or "Sekunde" depending on context??
Why can „Bank“ be a 🏦 or a 🛋️? It's a common feature of many languages that words can have multiple meanings. It's called Teekesselchen in German, which is funny because Teekesselchen is a Teekesselchen itself: It can either mean „small tea kettle“ or „word with more than one meaning“.
But more importantly, why is there no emoticon for bench? I had to use a couch instead.
Yep. Unicode has lots of useless smileys but is missing some important ones. And some often used (like facepalm) are in hard-to-decipher realistic style instead of the usual round face.
And thanks for the explanation.
