How to Say “My Number Is” in French

Mon numéro est le
The English phrase "my number is" is translated into French as Mon numéro est le.
The phrase Mon numéro est le is used specifically when providing a telephone number or a specific identification number.

Did you know?

  • In France, people typically group phone numbers in pairs of two, such as 01 02 03 04 05, rather than using the groups of three common in the US or UK.
  • While numéro is used for a specific digit in a sequence, French has a separate word nombre for a general quantity or amount.
  • Although numéro and nombre both relate to numbers, they are 'doublets' that entered the language via different paths, with numéro specifically borrowed from Italian.

Examples in context

  • Bonjour, mon numéro de téléphone est le zéro six, quatre-vingt-treize, quarante-deux, soixante-dix-huit.
    Hello, my phone number is 06 93 42 78.
  • Bonsoir, voici mon numéro de téléphone: zéro quatre, vingt-et-un, cinquante-six, soixante-dix-neuf.
    Good evening, here is my phone number: 04 21 56 79.
  • Yo, c'est mon numéro de téléphone: zéro six, soixante-neuf, vingt-et-un, quarante-deux.
    Hey, it's my phone number: 06 69 21 42.
