How do you pronounce it?

kareullosu

Did you know?

  • The character ㄹ in 카를로스 represents an 'r' or 'l' sound. In Korean, there is only one letter for both sounds, meaning 카를로스 could be read as both 'Carlos' and 'Karlos'.
  • Korean names are traditionally based on Hanja, which are Chinese characters. Since 카를로스 is a transliteration, it is one of the few names in a Korean context that has no underlying Hanja meaning.
  • In Korea, adding the suffix 씨 after 카를로스 creates the polite form 카를로스 씨. This is the standard way to address a peer or colleague without being overly formal or rude.
