Call someone for help
When people say, for example: *'I need to call my brother for help'.* _What does the verb 'call' mean?_Is it a synonym of 'ask' like in 'ask someone for help'? (It doesn't mean, you will call someone) OR it means *'ask someone for help specifically by calling this someone on the phone'*? Thank you.
Top answer
* It means to use the phone to summon your brother, unless the context indicates that your brother will hear you if you shout at him.
- * It means to use the phone to summon your brother, unless the context indicates that your brother will hear you if you shout at him.
