OBJECTIVE:
Work these first 10 digits to death until they come out of your mouth in Spanish as fast as they do in English (... oder Deutsch!).
TASK:
Pretend it's the pad of a cell-phone and dial as many numbers as you can, saying each number in Spanish as you dial it.
PERPLEXED?
I know. You don't know anybody's number. You use that quickdial method of less knowledge in your head so you can ditz out over something else ...

Learning the numbers in Spanish is really easy if you work them to death. You have to practice them a lot, to say them as quickly as you do in English.
So, ... practice! Click on the "phone pad" above and dial up everybody's number that you know by heart. Sorry about the lack of a quick dial scenario, ... but there's gotta be somebody's number up there in your head. Well, make up numbers then and dial away repeating every digit you hear until you're comfortable saying anybody's phone number as fast in Spanish as you do in English.

The following list of phone numbers is for practice only. They are NOT REAL.
Go through the list and say the numbers as quickly as you can!

 

(295) 463-8084
(872) 420-5503
(603) 551-3781
(142) 939-2791
(804) 770-4866
(367) 411-4242
(730) 267-9830
(622) 792-4182
(800) 555-5739
(910) 377-0057

 

EXERCISE:
Go straight down any page in your telephone book and say as many phone numbers as you can, until they sound natural, normal, correct, - and they come out as quickly as possible.
Do this exercise for a few days, until YOU are happy with your own results!

Have you ordered yourself a kid's counting book yet? If it's on your coffee table, you're gonna use it ... Or in the bathroom, for private study!
