2/20 What kind of text messages do you send and receive?

I send and receive text messages for various things. Some are personal while others are work-related.

* personal / work-related: 개인적인/업무와 관련된

ex> She makes too many personal calls at work.

ex> None of them were work-related.

With friends, I do a lot of catching up through text messages.

I can’t pinpoint just one topic that we talk about. We talk about a whole bunch of issues.

* pinpoint: 꼬집어서 말하다

ex> I didn't want to pinpoint whose fault it was.

* a whole bunch of: 다양한

ex> We discovered a whole bunch of problems.

I also get a lot of ads via texts. Many of them are annoying, so I filter them out.

* filter something out: ~을 걸러내다

ex> You can filter out spam messages by using this function.

I also receive text messages from my bank and my credit card company. I get texts when there is a change in my balance.

* in one’s balance: 계좌 잔액에

ex> There hasn't been that much change in my balance this year.

Last of all, these days, I also get a lot of texts for verification purposes.

* verification: 인증

@ Let me text her again.  그녀에게 다시 문자를 보내 볼게.
