Digital communication
Contexto cultural
In Bangladesh, 'মেসেজ পাঠানো' almost always implies using WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger rather than traditional SMS, which is now mostly used for bank alerts and spam. Similar to Bangladesh, but there is a higher usage of 'টেক্সট করা' (text kora) among the urban youth in Kolkata. In Bengali offices, it is polite to send a message before calling a superior. This is called 'মেসেজ দিয়ে রাখা' (leaving a message). During religious festivals, it is common to send 'Mass Messages'. Not replying to these is generally not considered rude, but sending one is seen as a good gesture.
Use 'Pathiye dao'
In casual conversation, instead of 'Pathao', use 'Pathiye dao' (পাঠিয়ে দাও). It sounds much more natural and friendly.
Recipient Suffix
Always remember to add '-ke' to the person you are messaging. 'Ami tumi mesej pathai' is wrong; it must be 'Ami tomake mesej pathai'.

Preguntas frecuentes
5 preguntasYes, but it sounds a bit dated. 'Mesej pathano' is the modern, all-encompassing term.
No, for an email, use 'ইমেইল পাঠানো' or 'মেইল করা'.
'Pathano' is 'to send', 'deya' is 'to give'. Both are used, but 'pathano' is more precise for the act of sending.
You say 'আমি মেসেজ পাঠাচ্ছি' (Ami mesej pathach-chi).
It's optional. 'Ekta mesej pathao' means 'Send a message', while 'Mesej pathao' is just 'Send message'. Both are fine.
