I think grito is a shout. (from gritar)

Olga said this to me at work. Me quieres dar un grito.

You want to give me a shout? Gracias.

EDIT: She made a sneezing motion when I said que quieres decir, but I can no mention of sneezing with grito. (estornudar)

What could she have meant? - jeezzle, Aug 16, 2011
Call her? Or oh...... maybe shout at her when a table is ready to be cleaned? I bet that's it. - jeezzle, Aug 16, 2011
She may not have meant it literally. Like in English, we don't expect a yell/shout/scream when we say "give me a shout". Just "let me know". - gintar77, Aug 16, 2011

Some people use it to say what you said: give me a call but the context doesn't really help to clarify it.

my guess is she just had to sneeze...you know when you have to sneeze but it doesnt come. But was trying to ask you to give her a shout later on
