now, when you do your kungfu rhythimically, say this instead of using any other ways of saying numbers.
It’s more authentic that way 
cheers
Dear Mr. Kung Lek:
Your effort at illuminating the enumeration is applauded. Most, however, at Shao-Lin and Dengfeng would likely pronounce the numbers as follows:
1 yi
2 er
3 san
4 si
5 wu
6 liu
7 qi
8 ba
9 jiu
10 shi
It’s more authentic that way.
Mandarinally yours,

Not all southern styles are Cantonese. In fact many of them are Fukkien
