Messaging someone via phone or internet.
خلفية ثقافية
Viber is the dominant messaging app, often used even for business. If someone says 'Pošalji mi poruku', they usually mean on Viber. It is common to send a message before calling to ask 'Možeš li pričati?' (Can you talk?). Calling without a text first can be seen as slightly rude. The term 'Seen' is often used as a verb in Croatian slang: 'Sinao me' (He 'seen-ed' me / left me on read). In formal emails, 'Srdačan pozdrav' is the standard way to end the 'poruka'.
Use 'Pusti mi poruku'
If you want to sound like a local, use 'Pusti mi poruku' instead of 'Posalji mi poruku' when talking to friends.
Case Matters
Always remember the 'u' at the end of 'poruku'. Saying 'poslati poruka' sounds very broken.
