AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) OO-NAH-WUN. The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Radio Regulations specify that the number "1" should be pronounced as "OO-NAH-WUN" when spoken on the radiotelephone. This standardized pronunciation is used to ensure clear and unambiguous communication, especially in noisy or high-stress environments. The other options are incorrect because they do not follow the ITU standard. Option A) "OO-NO" is not the recognized pronunciation, while options B) "NUM-EV-WUN" and D) "NEW-MAL-WON" are not consistent with the ITU guidelines.
