Definition: (heading) To use one's voice.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look!
You’ve got a tricky word today, “called,” and the dictionary gives us a clue – it mentions using your voice. But what does that
really
mean?
Think of it this way: "Called" is more than just shouting or speaking loudly. It's about
requesting
something, or sometimes even
naming
someone!
Let’s break it down with a little rhyme:
“Called” can mean to
ask
, a polite plea,
Like “Can I have a drink?” for you and me!
It can also mean to
name
a friend so true,
"I call you Sarah," is what we do!
And sometimes, it’s a phone's quick chime,
“You’ve been called!” – a message in time.
So, "called" means using your voice in different ways - to ask for something, to give a name, or even to answer a call.
