意思
The act of composing a letter.
文化背景
The 'Pismo Božičku' (Letter to Santa) is a huge event. The Slovenian Post even has a special 'Santa's Post' office in the town of Celje where children get replies. Historical letters from the front lines during WWI and WWII are preserved in many Slovenian families as 'dragoceni spomini' (precious memories). Slovenians are very proud of their handwriting (pisava). In schools, there is still an emphasis on 'lepopis' (calligraphy/neat writing). The 'Open Letter' (Odprto pismo) is a common tool for public intellectuals to criticize the government or social trends in major newspapers.
The Neuter Rule
Remember that 'pismo' is neuter. This makes it easy because the object form (accusative) is the same as the subject form (nominative).
Don't say 'pisam'
Even though many Slovenian verbs end in -am, 'pisati' is an 'i-conjugation' verb. It's 'pišem'.

Use 'eno'
If you want to sound more natural, say 'Pišem eno pismo' (I'm writing a letter). It adds a friendly, informal touch.

In Slovenia, writing a postcard (razglednica) is often referred to as 'pisati pismo' in a general sense of sending mail.
