This is my goal, yes.

I am trying to find something that fulfills the trade-off between
short and descriptive/long. Is it true that none of my words from
the first mail is reaching the goal somewhat?

  - mediated
  - informed
  - assigned
  - passed
  - requested
  - connexidatum
  - stored
  - delivered

I am depending here on the native speakers who can judge better than
me using a translation tool ...

Then, there are some possible combinations I could think of:

  - I_gave_phone
  - About_me_phone
  - About_my_phone
  - ...
