Question: How do you pronounce the "1+F" flap setting?

Hey guys,
working on my app, I’m trying to get the copilot to confirm flaps settings, and was wondering how he’d pronounce the Airbus’ “1+F” setting - is that “1 plus F” or “1F” or is there some other way to pronounce it?
Thanks for any help!

I think it’s just 1F but I’m not 100% sure

This is for his app so I don’t think so.

But it’s also in real life right? What pilots say in real life

Correct, I’m looking for what pilots would actually call it when talking to each other, say the pilot tells the copilot to set flaps to “1+F” and the copilot confirms “Flaps 1+F” - would he pronounce that “1 Plus F” or what?

Not when it´s for something Infinite Flight related, such as this app he is developing, for Infinite Flight.

I think they are called slats. The create lots of lift but not as much drag as normal flaps. They go down the front of the wing. I think F stands for front. I learned this from a Delta A319 pilot. Even though my memory is not perfect.
