재니스 (Jaeniseu) is the Korean way to say the female given name Janice.
How do you pronounce it?
The romanization is Jaeniseu.
Did you know?
- Because Korean lacks a standalone 's' sound at the end of words, 재니스 adds an extra vowel to create 스 ('seu'), turning a two-syllable name into three.
- The character 재 ('jae') in 재니스 is a common building block for native Korean names, often meaning 'talent' or 'ability' depending on the Hanja used.
- While 재니스 is a phonetic transcription, a Korean person might choose a 'Korean name' with specific meanings based on Chinese characters to use in formal or traditional settings.
