Pronunciation Guide
문자 (Munja) sounds like 'Moon-jah', with 'Moon' as in the celestial body and 'jah' like the 'ja' in 'jam'. 주세요 (Juseyo) sounds like 'Joo-seh-yo', with 'Joo' like 'jewel' without the 'l', 'seh' like 'say' but shorter, and 'yo' like 'yo-yo'. The stress is fairly even.

Cultural Context
While '문자' (munja) technically refers to SMS text messages, in modern Korea, it's often used interchangeably with '카톡' (katok), referring to messages on KakaoTalk, the dominant messaging app. For clarity, many Koreans will specifically say '카톡 주세요' (Katok juseyo) if they mean a KakaoTalk message. '연락 주세요' (Yeollak juseyo) is a broader phrase meaning 'please contact me' and can cover any form of communication.
