[ noun ] (telecommunications) a telephone call made within a local calling area
Used in print (Edwin L. Bigelow and Nancy H. Otis,...)These must have been for local_calls strictly , as in May 1900 the `` only long distance telephone '' in town was transferred from C._B._Carleton 's to Young 's shoe_store . (Robert A. Futterman, The Future of Our Cities....)the suburbanite naturally calls a local rather_than a central city number if both are listed in an advertisement , especially if the local_call eliminates city sales_tax .
