you've got no idea! Particularly as in Spain people don't spell names out to you unless it's to distinguish between 'b' and 'v', which are virtually identical in sound, or 'll' and 'y', which also cause problems. Then of course there are the 'sui generis' spellings. Since I live in the Basque Country I'd probably spell name as: Jaen (the J in Basque is often a Y sound), Urduliz, Arrigorriaga, Naroa, Izaro, Tolosa, ArrigorriagaDo you find this valuable? |

"o right just curious, because 'U' can be 'UNCLE' and 'UNIFORM', must get really confusing when working internationally..."Depends on whether you are using the American or the English. The American is generally used after the early part of WWII, but sometimes the English ones are used. In the English systems Alpha was Able, Beta was Baker. The English system used Uncle rather than Uniform. Do you find this valuable? |

"wrong wrong wrong we use uniform as i am english"Well actually at least until recently we used 'Uncle' in the UK - I'm British and grew up next door to Aldershot and Sandhurst Military Academy. One of my aunts was a bomber navigator in WWII in the WAAF, her hubby a RAF pilot, mum was in the WRNS, my cousin in the Royal Scots Guards, one of dad's friends was a Major in the SAS - and they all used 'Uncle' - that's how we got taught it at school (school governor was a Colonel). However, in recent years due to the influx of US TV series with military/naval storylines and globalisation in general 'Uniform' is now admitted in the UK forces too. But as a temporary telephonist (admittedly 30 years ago) again we were expected to use Uncle. But as you're probably considerably younger than myself it's probably why you're not used to the original spelling usages. Nothing ever remains totally unchanged, and like it or lump US English has greatly influenced UK English in recent years due to TV series and films, to such an extent spoken English is often a corruption of UK+US English, which is part of language evolution. In the same way that Spanish from Spain has become influence in the last 10 years by the influx of soap operas from Latin America, and the blossoming film industry of Argentina and Mexico among others, not to mention the large numbers of immigrants from these nations in Spain, thus the language is not what it was in 1979 when I arrived Ciao Do you find this valuable? |

"wrong wrong wrong we use uniform as i am english"I said 'used'. The English system changed to the American one during WWII... when there were so many US troops based in the UK. Prior to then, there were two different systems. Do you find this valuable? |
