WHAT DOES SUBLIEUTENANT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Sub-lieutenant

Sub-lieutenant is a military rank. It is normally a junior officer rank. In many navies, a sub-lieutenant is a naval commissioned or subordinate officer, ranking below a lieutenant. In the Royal Navy the rank of sub-lieutenant is equivalent to the rank of lieutenant in the British Army and of flying officer in the Royal Air Force. An RN sub-lieutenant is roughly equal to an ensign in the United States Navy and is theoretically equivalent to a Lieutenant Junior Grade which is equivalent to a Second Lieutenant and First Lieutenant in the United States Army, Marine Corps and Air Force. This is similar to the Royal New Zealand Navy which has its first commissioned rank as an ensign followed by a sub-lieutenant, but, just like how an RN Sub-lieutenant ranks above a British Army Second Lieutenant, an RNZN sub-lieutenant is equivalent to an RN sub-lieutenant with an RNZN Ensign being ranked below a RN sub-lieutenant while a US Navy Ensign remains to be roughly equal to sub-lieutenant in most Commonwealth countries. In some armies, sub-lieutenant is the lowest officer rank.
