    The document discusses how language can be a human factor that makes an aviation job more difficult to do safely. It provides an example response from someone who finds speaking English in their aviation job more difficult than fatigue. They explain that their limited English knowledge in aviation means situations often arise that are different than what they are used to, and sometimes a pilot will ask something using a word they don't understand, which is stressful as it means their job may not be done well if there is a lack of proper understanding.

    LANGUAGE AS HUMAN FACTOR IN AVIATION

    1. WHICH MAKES IT MORE DIFFICULT TO DO YOUR JOB SAFELY. FATIGUE OR SPEAKING IN


    ENGLISH?
    R: ABOUT THE SECOND QUESTION, SPEAKING IN ENGLISH IS MORE DIFFICULT FOR ME.
    BECAUSE MY KNOWLEDGE OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IN AVIATION IS LIMITED.
    SITUATIONS OFTEN ARISE THAT ARE DIFFERENT FROM THOSE I AM USED TO SEEING.
    FOR EXAMPLE, SOMETIMES A PILOT ASKS ABOUT SOMETHING AND I DON’T
    UNDERSTAND A WORD THAT WAS SAID. THIS IS STRESSFUL FOR ME BECAUSE IF I
    DON’T PROPERLY UNDERSTAND WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT, MY JOB IS NOT BEING
    DONE WELL.
