NATO Phonetic Alphabet

Let’s learn the NATO phonetic alphabet.

First, the digits.

Most of them are pronounced in normal English.

Try spelling the line at the top (which is just a zero for now),
verify your pronunciation,
and move on to the next level by clicking on the button.

Zero and one are both the same as English pronunciation.

Note that you always say each digit individually; never “ten”.

Same for two.

Three is different: you need to say “tree” instead.

Indeed, the “th” sound is hard to distinguish from radio noise.

Four is also different: say “fower” instead.

Five is nearly the same as English, but with an F instead of the V.

Six is the same as English.

Seven is just like English.

Eight is also normal.

You must add an R sound at the end when saying nine: NIN-ER.

When you see X, say Y.

Let’s switch it up. Listen to the NATO sequence, and try to write it accurately.

Retry a few times, then move to the next level.
