Right. So we're totally trying to confuse the people overseas that we're training to do our jobs, so we figured a new phonetic alphabet to use over the phone could be quite funny. Please help me put together a list of the most confusing words we can use. :D Some of these are going to be quite difficult.

Examples: P as in psychic, or C as in cites.


I'll keep the master list updated in this first post.

A - aisle
B - bdellium
C - cites
D - djinn
E - Europe
F -
G - gnome
H - honor
I -
J - jalapeño
K - Knight Rider
L -
M - mnemonic
N -
O - ouija-board
P - pterodactyl
Q - quiche
R -
S -
T - tsunami
U - urn
V -
W - whole
X - xylophone
Y - Yves
Z - Zed (or zero)

Any help appreciated. :)

Amazingly, this came up in a conversation today....!

I contribute anything with silent letters, e.g. "w as in whole", "m as in mnemonic" :D
