A phone-in is a radio or television programme where ordinary people ring the studio. They ask a guest a question, argue about the news, or tell a story, and you hear their voice on air. The host takes one caller after another. It is media language — you meet it in programme guides and from DJs — not school or hospital language. British English often phone-in; American English more often says call-in. Though actually, the noun comes from the verb: to phone in is to call that show. The marks the name of the programme, not just any call you make from your phone.
叩應節目。台灣廣播、電視都說「叩應」。中國大陸較常說熱線節目或聽眾來電。
組成Deverbal from the verb phrase phone in: the action of calling became the name of the show.
