Additions to the new emojis 2019 list include candidates like the Flamingo, Otter, and Guide Dog, as well as a Waffle, Hindu Temple, & the Indian Sari.

According to a post on the Unicode blog, the new emoji are listed in Emoji Recently Added v12.0, with sample images. They are basically samples for vendors for mobile phones, PCs, & Web platforms to use images that fit their overall emoji designs. In particular, the Emoji Ordering v12.0 chart shows how the new emoji sort compared to the others, with new emoji marked with rounded-rectangles. The other Emoji Charts for Version 12.0 have been updated to show the emoji.
