Does anyone know of a screen reader that can interpret emojis? (self.Blind)

There are instructions $1 to get them working in NVDA, the free open-source screen-reader for Windows.

Voiceover on the iPhone/iPad and voiceover on the desktop interpret emojis just fine. Each has a clear description when you go into the Emoji keyboard. This works pretty much anywhere, unfortunately proprietary graphics like Facebook stickers are still on described, but that's the fault of Facebook.

I think VoiceOver and Google Voice do interpret emoji... ? I know on a Mac you can follow this:
....from the Keyboard menu in the menu bar, select Show Character Viewer. In the Character viewer pane, select Emoji. When you select an Emoji, on the right side of the pane, you get a large graphic of the Emoji and a text explanation of the shape.
