NOTE 辨析 Call, ring or phone? Call is the only one of these three words used in American English. Ring and phone are the most frequent words in this group in spoken British English, but call is usually preferred, even in British English, when there is an emergency that involves asking sb/sth to come to a place: call the police/fire brigade is much more frequent than 'ring/phone the police/fire brigade'. You call/ring/phone a person, place or institution; you call a cab/a taxi/an ambulance. 這三個詞中只有call用於美式英語,ring和phone則最常用於英式英語的口語。但在緊急情況下打電話呼叫某人或某物時,一般傾向用call,即便在英式英語中也如此。call the police/fire brigade(報警;報火警)比ring/phone the police/fire brigade常用得多。call、ring、phone後可以接人、地點或機構,而cab、taxi、ambulance前要用callI'll ring/phone you a cab.
dial ˈdaɪəl (-ll-, NAmE -l-) [transitive, intransitive] to use a telephone by pushing the buttons or turning the dial (= the round part on some older telephones with holes for the fingers) to call a number 撥(電話號碼)He dialled the number and waited.他撥號後等着通話。Dial 0033 for France.打電話到法國撥0033。She picked up the receiver, paused a moment, and then dialled.她拿起話筒,頓了一下,然後撥電話。 telephone [intransitive, transitive] (especially BrE, formal) to make a telephone call to sb (給⋯)打電話Please write or telephone for details.欲知詳情,請來信或來電。You can telephone your order 24 hours a day.一天24小時你都可以打電話訂購。I was about to telephone the police.我正要打電話報警。 telephone
