I'm Finnish and in in Finnish we translate "call" in function context as "kutsua", which when translated back into English becomes "invite" or "summon".

So at least in Finnish the word "call" is considered to mean what it means in a context like "a mother called her children back inside from the yard" instead of "call" as in "Joe made a call to his friend" or "what do you call this color?".

Just felt like sharing.
