70% to passHow should the letter "Z" be pronounced when spoken on the radiotelephone?
A
ZEE ZE
B
ZOO LOO
C
ZE HE
D
ZEE BR AH
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) ZOO LOO. The International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet, also known as the NATO phonetic alphabet, specifies that the letter "Z" should be pronounced as "ZOO-loo" when spoken on the radiotelephone. This standardized pronunciation is used to ensure clear and unambiguous communication, especially in noisy or unclear conditions. The other options are incorrect because they do not follow the established pronunciation standards. A) ZEE ZE, C) ZE HE, and D) ZEE BR AH are not the proper radiotelephone pronunciations for the letter "Z" as defined in the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet.
