The letter 'ZULU' should be written as "Z" to distinguish it from the numeral "2."
RECOMMENDED PRONUNCIATION OF NUMERALS
To distinguish numbers from similar sounding words, the word "figures" should be used preceding
such numbers. Numbers should be pronounced as follows:
Number
Spoken
0
ZERO

TOO
3
THUH-REE
4
FO-WER
5
FI-YIV

SIX
7
SEVEN
8

(The figure ZERO should be written as "0" to distinguish it from the letter "O." The figure ONE
should be underlined to distinguish it from the letter "I." When rules require that numbers be
spelled, these do not apply.)
The following examples illustrate the recommended pronunciation of numerals:
