Placing a Call

A number, often with three digits, assigned to a telephone area, as in the United States and Canada, and used when placing a call to that area.

区域电话，区域号码：如美国及加拿大，通常有三个阿拉伯数字的数码，分配给一个电话区，当向该区打电话时使用。

Voice activation is perfect for placing a call; opening the flip lid on a phone is probably the most effective way of answering it (or again using voice activation for hands-free use).

语音激活来打电话就非常理想，打开翻盖手机的盖子来接电话无疑也是最有效的接电话的方式之一，或者用语音激活免提功能。

If you're chatting on a landline call, you can answer an incoming cellphone call by placing the landline call on hold.

如果你正在接听固定电话来电，那么只要按保留键，就可以同时接听手机来电。
