When I click on "chiama", the translation isn't appearing. Is there someone else that's having this problem?
Yep, I reported it but I don't know if they are aware yet. Just report it
I'm not sure I understand this verb. "Calls" as in "calls on the phone"? Can someone use it in a different sentence?
Lei mi chiama - she calls me.
Lei si chiama Sophie - she is called Sophie.
Similar to English use of 'to call' as far as I can tell. See conjugation below:

I swear it sounds like the native speaker is saying piama instead of chiama. Anyone else?
I heard that too. In the quicker version it does sound like 'chiama', but in the slower one, it sounds like 'piama'. I usually play the quick and the slow versions multiple times to make sure of the words I am hearing.

This was a post from about 2 years ago. Yep, they have fixed it since then. It was on the slower version.
Fun Fact: Another way to say your name is to say "Mi chiamo ....", similar to Spanish!
I had to search this one up, was the translation for 'chiama' not there for anyone else?

March 21, 2018 - You need to find the infinitive, which isn't always obvious (at least to me yet) from the conjugated forms. Chiama is a conjugated form. (To) call (the English infinitive) is chiamare. Here's a start: https://www.thoughtco.com/tables-of-regular-italian-verb-endings-4088101
Does somebody know what the black arrow means .when it s under chiama thick black arrow Thank you
Can "the girl shouts" be accepted? It looks like I could use it like clamo, clamare, from Latin. I always got a loud or aggressive meaning from it.

I thought chiami was related to a person's name as in come ti chiami, literally what are you called, meaning what is your name?
Well, literally it translates to "What do you call yourself?" You can also say telefonare in the sense of making a phone call.
Chiama has not been introduced yet. Did not know how to spell it. Got the question wrong for misspelling it.
Dont understand i was presing on chiama to see what it means and some black thing came out
La ragazza..................... Of the 3 answers given in the multiple choice, none is correct
Does anyone else remember learning that she "calls" translates to "chiede" or is it just me? "We call" translates to "chiamiamo" or chiediamo"? Or am I confusing words/verbs? Please let me know.

my answer is continually rejected, although I speak the words correctly. It keeps me in a loop. Please check this your end to see what's wrong.
