Texting vs. Calling
Texting vs. Calling
Call me, definitely? Would have been the name of my hit pop song if I were Carly Rae Jepsen. Everyone with a cell phone has the option to either text or call someone, in order to contact that person. Some people like to text and others would rather call. However, there are several similarities and differences between the two ways of communicating. As a person you choose whether to text or call that is the way you recognize as the best way of communicating, the best way of communicating is by calling someone. Calling definitely has more advantages than texting and this is why calling is the better form of communication. One of the differences between texting and calling is that by calling someone they can understand the tone of your voice and you won’t be misunderstood. When texting someone the receiver can’t tell if you are being sarcastic or understand the mood you are in. However, when you call someone they are listening to your voice so they can understand if you are being sarcastic or whether you are happy or sad. If you are in a bad mood, your voice is more monotone and down, if you are in a happy mood its more upbeat. So by calling, people won’t misinterpret your mood or the way you mean things. For example, most people will read, “You’re so cool”, in a sarcastic way, but over the phone the person can tell whether or not you are being sarcastic because that sentence can be read in a non-sarcastic way. Calling someone can eliminate the element of being misunderstood, due to the fact that, you hear the tone of someone’s voice. Texting can be better to express your feelings through the use of “faces”. When you call someone you can’t see the other person’s face. But, when you text you can incorporate faces such as “:)”, and “:(“ to express whether you feel sad or happy about things. Over a phone call you can smile but, the other person won’t see that and they won’t know how you felt about what that person just said. Just by putting
