In a Nutshell:

To whisper in Minecraft, open up your chatbox. Then begin the command by “/tell”, and then follow the /tell command by either @a if you want to whisper your message to all the players in the game or @p for whispering your message to the closest players. You can also try “/whisper” or “/msg” command if the first step doesn’t work.

/tell

After typing /tell, you will get options. There you will select the person to whisper your message.

  • Select @a if you want to whisper your message to all the players in the game.
  • Select @e to communicate will all entities.
  • Select @p for whispering your message to the closest players.
  • Choose @r for conveying a message to random people
  • And @s to message yourself.
  • Your message will be whispered as shown below. It contains your username, then comes the tag “whispers to you” and the last part is your message.

    [Your username] whispers to you: [your message]

    If the above commands are not working depending on the server or local game, you can also try /whisper or /msg command.
