许多公司选择拼写吸引人的短语的电话号码,因为它们比普通数字的联系号码更容易记住。但这些字母数字序列也会让那些从未拨打过电话的人感到困惑。
幸运的是,拨打“1-800-MY-APPLE”这样的号码并不复杂。在 iPhone 上,有多种拨打字母的方法,本指南将逐一探讨。

电话号码(Phone Number Mean)中的字母(Letters)是什么意思?
无论您使用传统的旋转电话还是现代智能手机,数字“2”到“9”都与特定字母相关联。例如,数字“2'”对应于字母“ ABC ”,“3”对应于“ DEF ”等。
这些关联允许组织创建基于单词的虚荣电话号码甚至品牌名称。一个流行的例子是“1-800- FLOWERS ”,其中“ (FLOWERS)FLOWERS ”一词中的字母在键盘上翻译为“3569377”。
理解这种字母数字关系是拨打电话的关键。这是数字和相应字母的完整列表。
2:A、B、C
3:D、E、F
4:G、H、I
5:J、K、L
6:M、N、O
7:P、Q、R、S
8:T、U、V
9:W、X、Y、Z
不用担心。您不必记住上面列表中的任何内容。如果您使用的是 iPhone 或几乎任何手机,请仔细观察键盘,您会发现上面的字母出现在各自数字的旁边或下方。

现在您知道要查找的位置,因此使用 iPhone 键盘拨打电话变得快速而简单。只是:

如何使用 Siri(Using Siri)在iPhone(Your)上拨打字母(Dial Letters)
iPhone 上的语音助手Siri(Siri)让拨打电话变得更加容易。假设您在 iOS 设备上设置了 Siri(Siri set up on your iOS device),只需:
- 按住Side/Home按钮或说“嘿Siri ”来调用Siri。
- 说出您要拨打的字母数字号码,例如“拨打(Call)1-800-GOT-JUNK”。您可以单独拼出字母或自然地说出单词。
- Siri在拨打电话之前应提示确认 - 如果准确,请点击“呼叫”(Call)并等待Siri将电话词转换为其数字格式并拨打电话。

注意:如果Siri无法拨打电话,请在 iPhone 上激活语音拨号。(Voice Dial)为此,请打开“设置”(Settings)应用,点击Face ID/Touch ID和密码” ,然后启用(Passcode)“语音拨号”(Voice Dial)旁边的开关。
如何使用语音控制(Using Voice Control)在iPhone上(Your)拨打字母(Dial Letters)
语音控制是iPhone 的一项辅助功能(accessibility feature for the iPhone),允许您仅使用语音命令来控制设备。如果它处于活动状态(由屏幕左上角的蓝色麦克风图标表示),您可以使用它来拨打字母,如下所示:
- 说“打开电话(Phone)”以打开电话(Phone)应用程序。
- 说“点击键盘(Keypad)”切换到“键盘”(Keypad)选项卡。
- 说出您要拨打的电话号码,不要像使用Siri那样以“呼叫”命令开头。

How to Dial Letters on Your iPhone
Many companies opt for phone numbers that spell catchy phrases as theу’re easier to rеmember than plain-digit contact numbers. But these alphanumeric sequences also confuse people who’ve never had to dial onе.
Luckily, there’s nothing complicated about calling a number like “1-800-MY-APPLE.” On the iPhone, there are multiple ways to dial letters, and this guide will explore each of them.

What Do the Letters in a Phone Number Mean?
Whether you use a traditional rotary phone or a modem smartphone, the numbers “2” to “9” are linked with specific letters. For instance, the number “2′” corresponds to the letters “ABC,” “3” to “DEF,” and so on.
These associations allow organizations to create word-based vanity phone numbers and even brand names. A popular example is “1-800-FLOWERS,” where letters in the word “FLOWERS'” translate to “3569377” on the keypad.
Understanding this alphanumeric relationship is the key to dialing phone words. Here’s a complete list of numbers and corresponding letters.
2: A, B, C
3: D, E, F
4: G, H, I
5: J, K, L
6: M, N, O
7: P, Q, R, S
8: T, U, V
9: W, X, Y, Z
Don’t worry. You don’t have to memorize anything in the list above. If you’re on an iPhone, or pretty much any phone for that matter, look closely at the keypad, and you’ll notice that the letters above appear next to or underneath their respective numbers.
How to Dial Letters Using Your iPhone’s Keypad
Dialing a phone word using the iPhone’s keypad is quick and straightforward now that you know where to look. Just:
- Open the Phone app and switch to the Keypad tab.
- Type the numbers in the phone word as you’d normally do—e.g., “1-800″—until you get to the letters.
- Locate and tap the numbers related to the letters. Each number on the keypad, except for “0” and “1,” is associated with a set of letters. For instance, to dial “L” you’d tap the 5 key.
- Once you’ve entered the entire phone word as numbers, tap the green Call button to place your call.

How to Dial Letters on Your iPhone Using Siri
Siri, the voice assistant on the iPhone, makes dialing phone words even easier. Assuming you have Siri set up on your iOS device, just:
- Hold the Side/Home button or say “Hey Siri” to invoke Siri.
- Say the alphanumeric number you wish to dial—e.g., “Call 1-800-GOT-JUNK.” You can spell out the letters individually or speak out the words naturally.
- Siri should prompt confirmation before placing the call—if it’s accurate, tap Call and wait until Siri converts the phone word to its number format and makes the call.

Note: If Siri cannot make phone calls, activate Voice Dial on your iPhone. To do that, open the Settings app, tap Face ID/Touch ID & Passcode, and enable the switch next to Voice Dial.
How to Dial Letters on Your iPhone Using Voice Control
Voice Control is an accessibility feature for the iPhone that allows you to control the device using voice commands only. If it’s active (this is denoted by a blue microphone icon on the screen’s top left), you can use it to dial letters as follows:
- Say “Open Phone” to open the Phone app.
- Say “Tap Keypad” to switch to the Keypad tab.
- Say the phone word you want to dial—do not begin with the “Call” command as you’d with Siri.
- Say “Tap Call” if the number displayed is correct to dial the number.

If Voice Control is not enabled, but you’d like to experiment with the feature, go to Settings > Accessibility > Voice Control and turn on the switch next to Voice Control.
It’s Nothing Complicated
As you’ve just learned, dialing phone words with the keypad on your iPhone is pretty simple. Remember to take advantage of Siri to make the process easier or Voice Control if you prefer voice-only interactions with the device.
As we wrap up, it’s also worth mentioning that the numeric keyboard within the iPhone’s Contacts app also displays letters like the keypad. You should have no trouble converting letters to numbers when saving phone numbers.
