Class 7 English Grammar Chapter 21 Message Writing. The telephone is an instant means of communication. It is a two way traffic. But sometimes the caller is not able to convey the message to the person concerned, as the latter is not available at that moment. So the person receiving the call writes it down to be passed on to the person for whom the message is meant. This is for the sake of accuracy.
