Why it sounds a little different
- Korean doesn't stack consonants, so a short “eu” (ㅡ) slips in — that's where 스 comes from.
- R and L share one letter, ㄹ — Korean doesn't tell them apart.
Say it in Korean
제 이름은 카를로스예요.
Je ireumeun kareulloseu-yeyo. — My name is Carlos.
To be polite, Koreans add 씨 (ssi) after a name: 카를로스 씨.
