Discussion follow up：call in

I looked up “call in” in the online dictionary yesterday when I received that msg. I found one of “call in” meaning is “visit”. 

Thanks for everyone's discussion. 

Today， I confirmed it with the office coordinater， the policy was changed

last Friday when I was off. We donot need to go to the office in person but discuss with the office 

nurses via in-house phone. That is why she used “call in” yesterday. 

Sorry for the misleading. 

I guess booster shot affected my train of thought yesterday.：）

 

I learned a new phrase:train of thought.:)

Yes, "call in" is kind of like "drop in" in this sense.

This usage in British English means "to visit a person or a place for a short time, usually while you are going somewhere else."  For example: "I'll call in on my way home."

最近学短语上瘾，感觉一说出来英文立刻地道：）今天学的：lose my train of thought，in-house

嗯。根据她今天所说，她的意思就是打电话讨论的意思吧

Yes, I think she meant call in by phone in this case. :)

It's not often used to mean "visit" in person I think.

嗯，你们的英文感觉太好。这些小的动词短语很有帮助，比如电话断了，他们用cut off，不用disconnected
