[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't use spoke unless it was verbal. [/quote] I’m so pedantic that I wouldn’t use “spoke” unless it was an oral conversation. Verbal means words. [/quote] [b]I don't use "spoke" unless it's in person. Teams, telephones, etc., are really just electronic reproductions of words. So even if I am speaking into the device, I can't be too sure if someone is "speaking" on the other end. "Spoke" has a very narrow use case, actually.[/b] Better: "I corresponded with Mary via the visual electronic medium Teams v2.7 on Dell SN:105348415." [/quote] FFS. [/quote] Seriously. No date or time mentioned. This could have happened in 1923 for all we know. [/quote]
