Is the sentence I give you a call correct?

The sentence "I give you a call" is grammatically correct, but it's not the most natural way to express that thought in English.

Here are some better options:

* "I'll give you a call." This is the most common and natural way to express the intention of calling someone in the future.

* "I'm going to call you." This is another way to express the same intention.

* "I'm calling you." This is used when you're actually in the process of making the call.

The original sentence is grammatically correct, but it sounds a bit odd because it's missing a modal verb like "will" or "going to" to express the future tense.
