In an older Nuntii Latini-article titled Morbus avarius in Turcia vagatur I encountered the following sentence:
Now, I am wondering, how does one spell all the letters of the Roman alphabet, like "ha" for "h" and "en" for "n")? Does anyone have an idea?Grippa aviaria, quam efficit virus, cui nomen H5N1 (ha, quinque, en, unum), in Turcia vagatur.
On a related note, what about the NATO phonetic alphabet, i.e. using "kilo" for "k", "foxtrot" for "f", etc.? Are there any suggested Latin alternatives?
