A transliteration in syrian dialect: Elfain U sitteh
Pronunciation in written Arabic not spoken by anyone as their natural dialect today - anymore than Latin is spoken in the streets today. :
Alfayni Wa sittatun (written classical Arabic)
Again I emphasize that classical standard Arabic is not spoken naturally anywhere in normal daily life - it is like a sort of Mandarin in chinese - except that mandarin is really spoken by some areas.
The written standard modern Arabic is only a artificially maintained language for formal lectures, speeches, announcements, & instruction & communication about specific topics. It is like a medieval Latin - and the modern various dialects are like italian, Portuguese, romanian, French, spanish, Catalan, etc.etc.etc.
Let no one be deceived about the notion that there is one uniform spoken language in Arabic, having one standard pronunciation.
there is the natural LIVING language of the home, the family & the street. And these dialects differ hugely from country to country And then there's the artificial fancy language of the schools, Islamic studies, & radio-telecommunications. It is not spoken naturally & normally by anyone unless they deliberately need to address a wide audience of different countries, who can understand it. And not all can readily understand it.

elfen oo sitta
That's how you pronounce it, I can't write it for you sorry as I don't have an arabic keyboard :-)
did you mean the individual numbers or "two thousand and six"? I've written what two thousand and six is for you but if you wanted to know how to pronounce each individual number then the third poster has done that correctly.

If you mean Two Thousand and six, the answer is ALFAIN WA SITTAH.
But the answer by 'lu' seems to be the slang of some Arab country. As a student of literal Arabic I can say this.
No offence meant to anybody.
If you mean Two Zero Zero Six.., the answer is ITHNAN SIFR SIFR SITTAH
