我家有五口人 - tone pronunciation?
There are three 3rd tones in a row (yǒu wǔ kǒu) in 我家有五口人.
I'm wondering if I'm saying it correctly?
Please listen to my voice in the attached recording. I'd be very grateful for any feedback about the sandhi rules in this case.
What I'm attempting to say is:
有 - half 3rd tone
五 - tone 2 has become tone 3 because it is in between two other tone-3 words.
口 - half 3rd tone

What I'm attempting to say is:
有 - half 3rd tone 【when 有 is much separated from 五，an obvious gap between them，need not change to half 3rd tone 。】
五 - tone 2 has become tone 3 because it is in between two other tone-3 words.
tone 3 has become tone 2 because it is before one other tone-3 word.
口 - half 3rd tone
