...At least if you're from around Turku or Rauma, which is as good a match as we can get for Scotty's fake Glaswegian Dockyards patois in cultural terms. So yes. Timo Saloniemi
Americans occasionally use "nought" in the sense of "nothing" or "to no effect" (e.g. "my efforts were all for nought") but we don't generally use it in everyday conversation -- and we almost never use it to mean "zero." You could always use the NATO Phonetic Alphabet.
I'm in my 30's and have *never* heard anyone but certain Scottish dialects use the term "nought" when speaking. It's as rare and out of place here.
Well in alphanumerical strings zero would be used to avoid confusion, but as So much for the noughties then. But the term nought isn't used that often, perhaps it's most common use would be in noughts and crosses.
Another vote for seventeen-oh-one, because that's what I say when I'm just saying the number part. When I say the full registry, I alternate between en cee cee seventeen-oh-one and en cee cee one seven oh one, with no real rhyme or reason as to which one I use. If I was a Starfleet records officer or communications officer, I'd probably say en cee cee one seven zero one. But I'm not, so I don't. ETA: And interestingly, this was apparently post number thirty-six-oh-one...
I'm pretty inconsistent, I have to say. I guess it probably has something to with something "I heard" at some point that stuck with me. For example: I do the "seventeen-oh-one" for he original. But for any of the others I say "One-seven-zero-one-dash-X." (With phonetics) I'm a weirdo. FWIW I do say "NX-Oh-One" And "seven-four-six-five-six" but "seventy-four, two-oh five" And, of course, just "NX/NCC Two-thousand"
Same. This is how I remember it being pronounced in the show and I've never considered saying anything else! While I'm no stranger to pedantry and I do agree that 'oh' is a letter not a number, I happily say 'oh' at the beginning of phone numbers so it just seems natural to use it.
Well...for me its always been "Eins Sieben Null Eins"...I just tend to think and pronounce longer numbers in German.
Personally, I pronounce it: "Oh One One Eight Nine Nine Nine Eight Eight One Nine Nine Nine One One Nine Seven Two Five ... Three"
Fairly common word after all if you clock is running backwards it's running anti-clockwise. Same if you want to turn a nut to the left you turn it anti-clockwise. Of course this is another of those UK vs US English things
