How to Say ‘Send me a WeChat message’ in Simplified Chinese

给我发微信

gěi wǒ fā wēi xìn

[gěi waw fā Wēixìn]

💬 Usage Tip: 给我 "to me" comes before the verb, not after it as in English. Also 给我打电话 "give me a call".

🇨🇳 In China: WeChat is the default for everything in China, so you'd ask for someone's WeChat rather than their phone number.
