Since I have a girlfriend who is a native speaker of English, sometimes I leave voice messages on WhatsApp and we make phone calls in English as well.

Do you ever make phone calls or leave voicemail messages in English?
No, I never have left a message in English, only in Spanish, but, I hope to leave a message in English soon when I learn English very well.
