Contexto cultural

Romanians are very active on WhatsApp. 'A scrie un mesaj' usually implies WhatsApp rather than SMS or Facebook Messenger. In business, writing a message on LinkedIn or Email is common, but 'a scrie un mesaj' without context usually refers to a mobile text. Young Romanians often use 'pwp' or 'ly' (love you) in messages, even if they wouldn't say it out loud. In villages, 'a scrie un mesaj' might still refer to a physical note left on a gate or a table.
