A

yāo yāo líng

Like in American English, Chinese phone numbers are given as a string of individual numbers, using the digits 0-9. The only trick is that the number 1 is often pronounced “yāo” instead of “yī” to avoid confusion with number 7, which is pronounced “qī.”

Note: when there’s a “0” in the middle of a number, you read it as 零 (líng), and don’t put a unit (like “ten” or “hundred”) after it. In the following examples, we’ll show what happens when the “tens” place is a zero in a three-digit number.

yībǎi yīshí

For numbers greater than 100 that end in a number in the teens, it’s normal to pronounce the ten as “yīshí” rather than just “shí” (see the examples below).
