How to Say ‘What is your phone number?’ in Mexican Spanish
¿Cuál es tu número de teléfono?
KWAL es too NOO-meh-roh deh teh-LEH-foh-noh
[KWAL es too NOO-meh-roh deh teh-LEH-foh-noh]
💬 Usage Tip: Spanish asks for numbers, names and addresses with cuál "which", not qué "what". ¿Qué es tu número? sounds like you're asking what a phone number is.
🇲🇽 In Mexico: Mexicans usually read phone numbers out in pairs, like cincuenta y cinco, veintitrés... "fifty-five, twenty-three...", rather than digit by digit. Expect this when someone gives you their number.
