Does using /say let the enemy hear you in WvW?
as far as i am aware, no it doesnt, else i’d been seen a lot more of trash talk than i could imagine
You can use /emote to communicate in WvW.
For example, I was playing my Thief and was on one of the side maps which has the South located supply depot. As I’m coming onto the island just North of the (enemy held) depot, I see another Thief fleeing across the bridge towards the depot. As he was moving, I could see a couple of traps being cast to block the bridge. Being all by myself, I paused to assess the situation. Realizing that I was flying solo, the enemy Thief spun around and waited for me with his shortbow drawn.
A few moments passed. It was obvious that he wasn’t going to charge me and obvious that I wasn’t crazy enough to charge his position. There was plenty of room to use the side rivers to move South and just bypass the bridge. With both of us realizing how this was going to play out, I hit the /wave emote on the targeted Thief. (From his end, it would say “A Fergusson’s Crossing invader is waving at you.”) In good spirit, the enemy Thief hit a /wave back towards me. With that moment of civility past, I stealthed into the river and headed towards the Supply Depot.
Over a month later, I still remember that brief encounter. It brought a smile to my face. Being able to show respect to a well played maneuver is one of my joys in WvW.

Okay cause one of my teamates was telling me that the enemy could hear me
what about /me "" ?
You can communicate with the enemy by simply targeting them then typing /invite to invite them in your party. Once in a party together you can party chat with them, despite being on opposite teams. I’ve used this a few times to talk to some people on opposing teams in WvW.
nope.
Only form of communication that works in WvW is emotes.
