Pictograms can be used to communicate very well and across language barriers. For example, a pictogram of a single person who looks like a man is clear: there is the gents. Pictograms are used both in public spaces etc. and as icons in apps on smartphones. Interestingly, when it comes to a telephone or a telephone-related application, a handset from an analogue telephone is usually used, which was in use decades ago but is hardly ever used today, especially not in private environments. It seems that for clear communication, the old or old-fashioned is better suited than the newest but short-lived. Communication cannot be accelerated at will. It takes time, and old habits such as direct conversation with physical presence are the proven good, even if it were more modern and via distributed locations. Perhaps an impulse for you to avoid misunderstandings?
I wish you an extraordinary day!
