- The NATO phonetic alphabet, officially called the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet, and also commonly known as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) phonetic alphabet, is the most widely used radiotelephone spelling alphabet in the world. We use this alphabet to clarify communication for maritime operations, domestic and international flights, and NATO Alliance Military Activities.
The system is simple, assigning names to the 26 letters of the English language and making a slight variation of the names of English numbers….

Should mention that the words are chosen to be auditorily distinct from one another.
Crow T. Robot is this like saying a sgt is a bravo or Charlie well a private would be Zulu or x ray.
Joseph Bellofatto no
problem is that france is part of nato , and us french ppl cant pronouce h of hotel
FarsTrapa A which is why when you hear “otel” you know they are saying H and not 8.

These was a good video
Yup it was
A great way I was taught to learn this was to read highway signs as you approached them. It'll give you limited time and you'll feel the pressure but you'll prevail over time. My dad used this technique on me and I was one of the most familiar with the phonetic aphlabit in my infantry Platoon. My dad was tough on me but it helped me out greatly and anyone thinking about joining I would highly advise trying the same thing.

Fun fact: the only rifle company in the entire marine corps authorized to be identified over comms by a non standard phonetic is “Easy Co.” 2nd Bn./2nd Marines.

Ian Mangham you talking to me?

I have actually used this in life. Knowing this information comes in handy when you get in a situation where you NEED to be understood by the person that you are communicating with.
I don’t know why I laughed so hard at the air traffic control part, I guess it’s because it was so jarring lol
Probably trying to mimic the distortion from the radio communication.
Yes, but what's your vector, Victor?

It was made as a standard way for aircrews to understand and recognize themselves around the globe. Every flight is given letters along with numbers but if you see M and N, D and B can sound very similar so they use code words to define clearly. M will be Mike, N will be November, D will Delta and B will be Beta. (Latest Radio-telephony Alphabet).
It all started during the First World War, where British infantrymen were using their version of Ack, Beer and Charlie whereas the Royal Navy were using Apples, Butter and Charlie. When the US air force joined the war they adopted Able, Baker alphabet among all allied forces, which later on also was adopted by Civil aviation but confusion still continued around the globe.
ICAO wanted to create alphabet which will be recognized and understood in other countries easily even when it is made of English words. So, no matter where was pilot from they would find it easy to understand. A Professor of Linguistics from the University of Montreal Dr. Jean Paul Vinay was charged to create a new alphabet list which was completed by 1951.
This new alphabet list shocked the world, though, many pilots disliked it and used old alphabets which they had previously. Later on after testing among 31 ICAO member countries, the alphabet was officially introduced on the 1 March 1956, with only 5 simple changed to Professor Jean Paul Vinay’s earlier work and the words were C, M, N, U and X.

This is one of many things that have stuck with me even after almost 30 years discharged from the military.
His name is "V" , he live in "I" , he was born in "N" at the "H" , he is 60 "K" , his favorite drink is "W" , his hobby is playing "G" with his "P" , And his friends are "M" , "J" , and "Z" . And they are live in "3".
😂 Hahahaha
"9" work, man
I was benefited from this when I had to urgently buy air ticket via phone call during my oversea trip several years ago. The ticket staff at the other side of the phone was excited, she said: you made this easy for me, I would have kissed you if you were in front of me.
It's simple radios are scratchy and people can have speech impediments. "bee, cee, dee, gee, eee, pee, tee, vee, zee" sound similar and can easily get screwed up ...

I'm glad I'm starting to learn these early. Definitely gonna come in handy.
He’s not wrong in the control tower your voice sounds just like that to
Clear and to the point…well done!!!
Still remember and use to this day.
Another great video brotha👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
“LaNd oN rUNwaY FIfE TrEE” Good god, as pilot that hurt.
As a travel agent, I use this alphabet on a daily basis to communicate with hotels and other agencies. It is not that difficult to learn
I regret making a character that is in the military because I have zero knowledge on the military but this kind of helped
Thank brother for the reminder be safe and merry Christmas
The way I practiced the phonetic alphabet when I was in JROTC was by counting the curtains and spelling out the numbers phonetically. For example: One- Oscar November Echo, Two- Tango Whiskey Oscar, Three- Tango Hotel Romeo Echo Echo, etc. and I continued the process until class was over. One way which a classmate of mine practiced was by reading the license plates on cars and trucks.

Licence plates is a great idea. Gives you something to do at a red light haha
Thank you for this even though I have used this for 20n years, I did not know many if this.
i learned this for literally no reason
Hotel Echo Lima Lima, India Mike, Sierra Alpha Tango Romeo India Alpha :-)
Satria Pratama You forgot Oscar after Lima, It says Hell, I’m Satria. I mean this could be correct but I don’t think it’s what you meant.
I like the numbers. Expecally how they are spelled.
also in German E and B sound verry similar to each other. F and S as well. So we also even use it ins witzerland. ;)
Wish this was taught in school more. When I have to spell my name I instinctively use NATO but no one outside military/aviation gets it, e.g. when calling customer service.
This is funny coz i just got my first job as a costumer service representative and im not an english native speaker, my boss recommended to study this bc many times i don't rlly get the names correctly ':)
Great channel subbed👍
When you ask a 6 year old the alphabet
6year old: a b c d e
Military personnel: alpha bravo charlie delta echo
So informative
Thank you
Actually pretty darn cool
Yes i will tray practice every day.
I feel like a good way of learning the NATO Alphabet is by watching Airforceproud95 and paying attention to everyone's callsign.
This makes a lot more sense when dealing with masks.
Had to set a modem up and the tech support demanded me use this to bark the required codes.
Soo they use these letters to clarify the letters?
Like when I say T and D they sound the same right? But when I say Tango and Delta it is clear right? Idk actually I don’t think I understood
TBH isn't these alphabets much cooler than the regular one.
Thank you for this info?
Thanks!
Ya know, every time I think of the NATO phonetic alphabet, there’s only one thing that comes to mind, and if you’re a wrestling fan, you’ll know what it is!

@@Jinx-iw6zb *SHIELD
This will be useful to read codes to my friends in Among Us
I actually learned this for the same reason😂😂,
Perfect video.
The pronunciation was deliberately altered to be heard and interpreted clearly over static-filled radio channels...VERY IMPORTANT in the fog of war when comm lines are clogged and clear Person-to-person comm is needed.
Great video and Sixth!
Finally i got wonder video regarding nato
Does this apply to the hospitality industry as well?
This is a great history lesson! That said though...swearing would be TEN TIMES as funny using this alphabet. Nothing would be the same again.

Decrease air control tower audio level by fife hundred percent, how copy?
Oh I didn’t know 3 was pronounced as “Tree” in the NATO Alphabet
I have an accent so i say tree instead of three. I will probably remember that one lol
Yeah I think english and maybe icelandic are the only two modern languages that pronounce the "TH" sound IIRC. nonetheless the "th" sound isn't shared in many of the other languages of the world
3 =🌳
this is an edited comment so that replies become weird
It is in Greek. Just like G is Gama, E is Epsilon, S is Sigma, and so on...
@@visionaeon Greek letters don't go along with Latin letters
You got it confused because alpha and delta are Greek letters so you'd think b would be beta, which is another Greek letter
😅
ooh now I get it at first i thought you just messing around
i the Canadian Navy they say Bravo Zulu it means good job

As a customer service representative whose mother tongue is not English, it's not helpful, no, in my native language we spell how we speak so I wasn't familiar with this. I get super confused when people start telling me these random words and I panic and get yelled at for not listening properly. I finally realized they use the same words and decided to Google this...
jeeeeez check the levels on your sound and maybe use a limiter. constantly have to turn the volume up and down
Idk why saying this word sound awesome
Fire at will!

November, India, Golf, Golf, Echo, Romeo.
in the spelling of the grid location u said "four" but it is "fouwer", why? explain
The reason why the numbers are spelled that way is so non-english speakers can learn how to pronounce them properly, since in other languages numbers are obviously pronounced differently they might say 3 in their language rather than in English, which is the entire point of the NATO Phonetic Alphabet in the first place.
Going into sales can I like this again? lol

I had proposed my high school girlfriend with the NATO alphabets, sort of, it was "India London Venice Ultra", silly me, didn't know which alphabets had which words😅 I do now.
in the beginning of covid-19,I called airlines that I booked to chance flight date,now the lady wanted to give me there email for change confirmation,as read for me the email,she was like i for India,N for November,I now know that we were using NATO alphabet,😂
What is the purpose of it?
Anybody going into the military better know all these phonetic alphabets 😁
Every gamer should learn this
Aaaaand there goes my hearing...
