"Hi everyone, I'm Russ Handler and did you know that making an international phone call actually consists of four separate numbers? One is the international code to get out of our country, the United States. Another is going to be the country code. Then you have the city or region code, and then of course the phone number. Let me put that into perspective for you. Lets say we're dialing London from the United States. We're going to dial 011. That's the code that tells your local carrier that you're going outbound to another country. We're then going to dial England. Let's say London, 44 is the city code or rather the country code for the UK, and then we're going to dial a regional code or a city code. So that would be 5632 for a suburb of London and then we first have to dial the phone number, 555-8907. So once again, 011 for the outgoing country and then 44, the country code. We have a city code that we have to dial and then the number. And that's how you do it. I'm Russ Handler. Have a great day."
