How many siblings do you have?<http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences/show/700065>

<http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences/show/700065>My first instinct was {li xo
tunba}, but this seems wrong, especially since {li pa tunba} is nonsensical;
the number one cannot be a sibling.
Would "[I have] two siblings." be {reda tunba}, and "How many siblings [do
you have]?" be {xoda tunba}?
