Phonetic Alphabet (idea)

It should also be noted that numbers are pronounced slightly differently. In particular four is pronounced fou-er to distinguish three from four, and nine is pronounce "niner" to distinguish "one" from "nine". Further, "five" is usually pronounced "fife". Sounds strange, but remember this is designed for static-y radios and to work across lots of different accents.
