正确表达I have three missed calls on my phone.
英语里用分词作定语修饰名词时必须带 -ed，动词原形 miss 不能直接放在名词前；“未接来电”的固定说法是 a missed call。
missing 侧重“该在而不在”，可指人失踪或物缺失（missing child, missing page）；missed 侧重“没被感官或心思捕捉到”，常修饰 detail、meaning、opportunity。说“缺页”用 missing page，说“没注意到的细节”用 missed detail。
unnoticed 表示“没被人注意到”，常与 go、pass 连用或作后置定语（go unnoticed, unnoticed by others）；missed 表示“没被捕捉到”，多作前置定语，如 a missed detail。“错误多年无人察觉”用 unnoticed；“没注意到的细节”用 missed detail 更自然。
misread 是动词，指读错或理解错，强调“弄错意思”（misread a situation 误判形势）；missed 是形容词，指“漏看、没察觉”，强调“没捕捉到”。中文都可能说“没看懂”，但 misread 是主动误判，missed 是疏忽漏掉。
