emoji keyboard option missing from list of other keyboard options

I've been trying to add the Emoji keyboard to my ipad. I go to Settings<Keyboard>Keyboards>Add but when I scroll down the list, Emoji is not listed under "Dutch" where, according to all the images of this list I've seen on the Internet, it should be....but it's not there....is there a way to update that list?

I can't for the life of me find out WHY Emoji is missing from that list....is it a 9th generation iPad issue?

Do I give up or is there a solution?

Thanks

iPad, iPadOS 16

There is an Emoji listed under the English keyboard - I just deleted it and looked through the list again and there it was under "Dutch"...so I added it again. This should mean that the emoji keyboard is available but I still don't see it when I use the small version ipad keypad as in Procreate for example where I'm told it should appear as a "world" icon which, when clicked on, brings up some emojis to use in that program although they are different to the ones we normally use...When I use Google a larger keyboard pops up with the usual/normal emoji smiley face showing......

Can you tell I'm kinda new to all things Apple? LOL...

Thank you so much for trying to help...but I won't waste more of your time....having the emojis in Procreate isn't critical...it's just frustrating me that I can't "fix it".
