There are little numbers on the phone that say '1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0'. You turn the dial to each one and then call whoever you're calling. For more modern telephones there are buttons for each number instead of an old-fashioned dial. In the current decade, portable 'cell phones' are becoming very common, so, to not get mixed up, we call phones attached to a cable 'home phones'. Cell phones operate in the same way as home phones.
