1 item

to respond to

响应 is the response to a call, commonly used with 号召 (响应号召).

号召 is often followed by a clause or an action noun, e.g., 号召大家保护环境 (call on everyone to protect the environment).

Don't confuse 号召 (call for action) with 召唤 (summon); 号召 is used for rallying people to a cause, not summoning individuals.
