Did you see my WhatsApp status?
Stress 'STA-to'. 'WhatsApp' = pronunciation as in English.
Ask this when you've posted something to your WhatsApp Status (24-hour disappearing stories) and want to know if a friend saw it.
'Stato' = status (both grammatical state and the WhatsApp Status feature). 'Hai visto' = did you see (informal perfect past). WhatsApp Status, introduced in 2017, functions like Instagram/Facebook Stories. Italians use it for holiday updates, events, and humour.
Ho messo una storia su Instagram.
I posted a story on Instagram.
