What is the phonetic alphabet for the letter E?

Easy
Echo
Eating
Eel

The correct answer is: Echo

The phonetic alphabet for the letter "E" is "Echo." This term is used in various communication contexts, particularly in aviation and military communications, to ensure clarity and avoid misunderstandings when spelling out letters over radio or phone. The use of such standardized words helps to eliminate confusion that can arise from similar-sounding letters. While "Easy," "Eating," and "Eel" are words that start with the letter "E," they are not part of the official phonetic alphabet utilized for communication. The phonetic alphabet is carefully constructed to ensure that each letter is distinctly represented by a single, universally recognized word, and "Echo" serves this purpose for the letter "E."
