call

English Other Other
Should “call” be removed in the third sentence below?:
Kids favorite place to eat or order from is often related to the fries
I wish they ate other “things in addition to fries
I wish there was sharing platter with different fries so we **call** could enjoy fries that we like
Fries should be in different shapes and sizes for kids to enjoy more
There are not too many places with menu items that do something special for kids

Thank you for your kind help.
Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Yvonne Gallagher

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

I think this is a typo, and should say "all" instead of "call." Definitely shouldn't be call, as that doesn't make sense in this context.

That shouldn't be there in the sentence, I'd definitely remove it.
