Instant messages

I would say it depends on the situation, whether to phone or send messages. Whereas the majority of people nowadays prefer using messages, for example, through WhatsApp or WeChat, because of the availability of internet connection, messages are considered more affordable and cheaper than phone calls. Personally, I tend to use WhatsApp to contact my friends and family. I also have group chats for close friends and relatives, which makes it easier to reach them.

I prefer call them. Because when I send a message my friends cannot see my message so I think I need to call them. Actually it is depend on the position. For example if that problem is urgent I got to call them.

What do you prefer – sending messages to your friends or phoning them?

I believe it depends on what I have to say. If it's something urgent and I need them to respond right away, I prefer calling them. If it's not urgent, a message is enough, even though I may have to wait a while for their response.

In my opinion,it depend on the occasion, because I live outside of my country, so with my mum and my friend, i prefer to call them because it feels more personal. But for the other things I prefer to send a message because  people could be busy or something like that

it depends on the situation, if something urgent or something complicate to explain the then I call, otheweise I mostely messge

I mostly prefer sending messeges to my friends because it is easier, I can answer their messeges when I'm free, for example during the lunch time. We can also send photos and audios to explain a situation. I only call them if I'm in a hurry or we have to meet personally.

On the other hand, I prefer phoning my mother, I used to do it once a week.

What do you prefer – sending messages to your friends or phoning them?

I prefer to send a messages in my friends because is easy and fast also, don't disturb them. Always me when , is not a urgent message, then I prefer call them.

It depends on the intimacy of your friendship, the topic, the timing, etc.
If the topic is not easy and complicated to send a message, I prefer to write first if you are available. If the answer is available, I call.
Sometimes it also depends on my mood. If I don't want to talk to someone and need to give urgent information, I write instead of calling.
However, written communication can cause some misunderstandings. There may be some conflicts because people do not see each other. So if you don't have the chance to meet face to face, one-to-one telephone communication is always better than writing.

In my preference, I like texting, is fast, and more over people use the shorter ways to explain the same idea, but with less details. It happens to me, that I get bored esaly by phoning. Summarasing I am more to talk face-to-face than phone.
