Kultureller Hintergrund
Zalo is the ubiquitous messaging app. If someone asks to 'gửi tin nhắn', they usually expect it on Zalo rather than SMS. Younger generations use 'Ib' (from English 'Inbox') as a verb. It's faster than saying 'gửi tin nhắn'. Messaging is often preferred over email for quick business decisions. It's seen as more direct and efficient. Using too many stickers in a formal 'tin nhắn' can be seen as unprofessional, but in casual chats, stickers are essential.
Use 'Nhắn tin' for brevity
In casual conversation, just say 'nhắn tin' instead of the full 'gửi tin nhắn' to sound more like a native.
Don't forget 'cho'
English speakers often forget 'cho' (to). Always say 'gửi tin nhắn CHO [person]'.
