I prefer to speak in person or phone calls, it's making "the progress" faster and this is the best way to communicate by showing emotions, voice tones,... a good way to "express" the story or conversation. Even though I still prefer texting messages sometimes for the polite reasons.

I like to keep the contact with my friends throught text messenges. Lately, I use to send audios via whatsapp to speak with them and tell anecdotes or some things. I dont use to make telephone calls, just to speak with my mum, dad or brothers or when I need to know something inmediatly I have to get the response quickly.

I like to speak in person. I have few friends to send text massages like the sample! ;)

I prefer to speak if it's urgent if it's not then I'll just msg them.

i mostly use text msgs to text my friend about any plan but sometimes i prefer a dial

I definitely send a lot more text messages, to communicate with my friends and make plans.

All depends on my mood and time. Sometimes I prefer texting people. Other times I enjoy talking on the phone.

I don't prefer texting to someone and like to call. If i send messages , i use emojis and abbreviation . I think emojis are so cute .

I like the word "IDK" somehow. It sounds like "DIY"! ; )

I texting message to my partner for share jobs information . We usually use this method.
