The NATO phonetic alphabet is also known as the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet. In the early days of aviation, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) had a problem on their hands. When people from different countries communicated with each other over the phone and exchanged flight numbers or other airplane-related information, the various accents and pronunciation would cause mistakes. So the ICAO came up with a solution. They assigned 26 code words to the 26 letters of the alphabet. The code words were chosen to make sure that regardless of the accent of the speaker or the disruption in the communication channel, the person on the other end would be able to easily distinguish what is being said.
Generally, people who work in aviation or other fields where they have to exchange critical long serial numbers over the phone, remember the NATO phonetic alphabet. But you don’t have to. You can use the SpellNato.com tool to spell out your name or street address letter by letter or read out your flight booking number, or dictate your VIN chassis or EAN barcode number. It makes your life easier. As an added bonus, you can place your phone next to your device's speaker and use the READ OUT tool to play the spelled out text, so there is no opportunity for any mistake at the called party.
