1) 是 (shì) means "to be" . In English, we use "am", "are" or "is" depending on the subject. However, in Chinese, we use 是 (shì) only, in other words, NO different forms.
2) 叫 (jiào) means "to call" or "to be called". When we ask for other's name, we say "你叫什么名字？(Nǐ jiào shénme míngzi?", the word-by-word translation of which is "You are called what name?". The answer to that question is " 我叫 XX 。 (Wǒ jiào XX.) ", meaning "I am called XX."
