Written mobile communication.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Turkey, it is common to send 'Hayırlı Cumalar' (Have a blessed Friday) via kısa mesaj to elders and colleagues. It is a sign of respect and remembrance. Turkey has a very active SMS marketing culture. However, the government introduced the 'İleti Yönetim Sistemi' (İYS) to allow citizens to block these 'kısa mesaj' spam easily. The 'seen' feature (görüldü) is a major topic in Turkish dating. If you don't reply to a 'kısa mesaj' quickly, it might be interpreted as 'naz yapmak' (playing hard to get). The Turkish disaster management agency (AFAD) uses 'kısa mesaj' to send nationwide alerts about earthquakes or severe weather, often accompanied by a loud siren sound on the phone.
Use 'atmak'
Always use 'atmak' instead of 'göndermek' with friends to sound more like a native speaker.
Avoid 'yapmak'
Never say 'mesaj yapmak'. It's a common mistake for English speakers (to make a message).
