What does 'llamarse' translate to in English?

  1. To be called

  2. To call out

  3. To clamor

  4. To climb

The correct answer is: To be called

The term 'llamarse' translates to "to be called" in English. This reflexive verb is commonly used when talking about names, indicating what someone is called or referred to. For example, when someone states, "Me llamo Juan," they are essentially saying, "I am called Juan." This use of the verb captures the essence of introducing oneself by name, which is a significant aspect of social interaction. The other options do not align with the meaning of 'llamarse.' "To call out" pertains to the act of calling someone, "to clamor" involves making a loud and confused noise, often related to a crowd, and "to climb" refers to the action of going up or ascending. These meanings diverge from the context associated with self-identification provided by 'llamarse.'
