Counting 1 to 10, on one hand, sentence 5
Two tricky bits: for «two of something» you say liǎng, not èr; and on the phone people read 1 as yāo so it can't be confused with qī (7).
Who acts: you, people · What happens: say, read, not confuse · To what, where: liǎng, phone · Speech: someone speaks here
