ljswave"get a call "
If someone calls you, the phone rings. You've got a call. You answer. You talk. You hang up. Later you say, "I got a call from ...".

This is "get" as "receive". The grammar works the same with letters and emails and similar things.

You [get / receive] [a letter / an email / a package / a postcard / a ( phone) cal
