[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't use spoke unless it was verbal. [/quote] How about sign language? [/quote] Some sign language involves verbal, some not. Do you use sign language? Or were you just being a pedantic glass bowl?[/quote] If we are going to be pedantic about the meaning of spoke, we should be pedantic about verbal. [/quote] Verbal means in words. Including written words. Refer to the Verbal part of the GRE, [/quote] So, email, being written words, is verbal communication. Therefore, we can use "spoke with." However, ASL is right out not being written or spoken. [/quote]
