쿠마르 (kumareu) is the Korean way to write the name Kumar, a given name or surname of Indian origin.

How do you pronounce it?

Did you know?

  • Because Korean lacks a standalone 'r' sound at the end of words, the name 쿠마르 adds an extra vowel sound, making it sound like 'kumareu'.
  • Korean speakers often use the honorific suffix -씨 after 쿠마르 to be polite, resulting in 쿠마르 씨.
  • When writing 쿠마르 in Hangeul, the final consonant 'ㄹ' is the same character used for both 'r' and 'l' sounds.
