A naval rating or naval rate is a naval term that can have several closely related meanings depending on the context and country it is used in. In Commonwealth navies, both rate and rating refers to an enlisted member of the navy, subordinate to warrant officers and officers. In the United States, the term rate refers to an enlisted sailor`s specific rank, while rating denotes a sailor`s occupational specialty.
