La frase "somos cinco" no se traduce en inglés como we are five porque esta última frase significa "tenemos cinco años" sino que se traduce como there are five of us o lo que es lo mismo "hay cinco de nosotros".
Veamos diferentes ejemplos (tanto en afirmativo como la manera de preguntar cuántos sois o son).
There were ten of them.
There were four of us.
There are two of them.
There are six of us.
There will be three of them.
There will be five of us.
How many of them are there?
How many of you are there?
How many of them will there be?
How many of you will there be?
How many of them were there be?
How many of you were there be?
