editI'm just wondering whether the second definition be under a "Translingual" header - aren't Alfa, Bravo, Charlie, etc, in use worldwide? The same would then apply to the other 25 entries, of course. — Paul G 09:06, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- No, other languages use other words. Alfa, bravo, charlie, etc., are worldwide only inasmuch as English is the international language of airline pilots. —Stephen 17:22, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- For example, Appendix:Russian spelling alphabet. —Stephen 17:51, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- Swedish or Finnish might be a better example since they use pretty much the same characters, of the same script anyways. I'm surprised there's no French or German though, or maybe I just haven't found it? DAVilla 09:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

- The French and German equivalents are at Appendix:French spelling alphabet and Appendix:German spelling alphabet. —Stephen 03:44, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
- Due to variations there are more entries than that. DAVilla 09:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
