Make a call 是什么意思？打电话，make the call 还可以是作决定

Make a call 表示打电话：I need to make a call。另一种意思通常带 the：make the call 表示作决定，常是由你负责、较困难或紧急的决定。It's your call 就是“由你决定”。这个意思偏口语，作文中用 make a decision 更稳妥。

Make a call 不能在 make 后直接加表示人的宾语。要说明给谁打电话，可以说 give you a call，或直接 call you。使用 make 时，对象放在 to 后面：make a call to the bank。

Make a call 表示主动打电话，take a call 则表示接电话：Sorry, I have to take this call。因此要注意，作决定是 make the call；take the call 是接电话。
