one-two-three
Child's counting start
One-two-three is the count that precedes coordinated action—the ready signal before lifting something heavy, starting a race, or taking a photo: On the count of one-two-three, lift.
It can describe something accomplished with ease: It was one-two-three and we were done.
In boxing, a one-two-three is a rapid combination of punches.
