Saying phone numbers

[richyrich]

If I;m saying my telephone number to someone, how is it said. I know you don't say it number by number, but I don't know the general rule.

so say for instance how would I say 678280134

Thanks

You can say either number by number or say seis... and then the rest in groups of two numbers: seis veintiocho etc. There isn't a specific rule for that. It'd sound really strange to say in groups of three, though (seiscientos veintiocho...).

Generalmente lo agrupas. Puede ser primero la característica, etc.
EX. 6001010
600 zone, district
10
10
600 10 10 "six hundred, ten, ten"

It depends on where you are what the typical pattern would be, or rather where the person you wish to tell is from. It also depends on which of those digits are part of the area code/city code/country code and which make up the local number.

So, where?

And which make up the local number? (e.g. the last 6,7 or 8 digits, perhaps)

Sorry forgot to be more specific. It would be telephone numbers from Spain. So I don't think any of the zone, district things are used.

The number of the example is a cell-phone number in Spain. So you can say it either number by number or say SEIS and the rest in groups of two.
