Significado
To compose and send an electronic message.
Contexto cultural
In Iranian business culture, emails are often followed by a phone call to confirm receipt. 'ایمیل نوشتن' is seen as the formal record, but the phone call builds the relationship. Students must use very formal titles when 'ایمیل نوشتن' to professors. Using 'سلام استاد' is the bare minimum; 'استاد گرامی' is preferred. Iranians rarely use 'Reply All' unless absolutely necessary, as it can be seen as intrusive. When 'ایمیل نوشتن' in a group, they are very selective. The Academy of Persian Language and Literature (Farhangestan) prefers 'رایانامه' (rāyānāme), but you will almost never hear this in daily 'ایمیل نوشتن'.
Use 'be'
Always remember to use 'be' (to) before the person you are emailing.
Avoid 'kardan'
Don't say 'email mikonam'. It sounds like a non-native speaker.
