How to write Ingrid in Korean
잉그리드

- 그geu
- 리ri
- 드deu
4 syllables · Spelled by the National Institute of Korean Language's rules for foreign names.
Why it sounds a little different
- Korean doesn't stack consonants, so a short “eu” (ㅡ) slips in — that's where 그·드 comes from.
- R and L share one letter, ㄹ — Korean doesn't tell them apart.
Say it in Korean
제 이름은 잉그리드예요.
Je ireumeun inggeurideu-yeyo. — My name is Ingrid.
To be polite, Koreans add 씨 (ssi) after a name: 잉그리드 씨.
