Chase in Korean 체이스
Korean media, baristas and the immigration office write Chase as 체이스: three syllables, said che-i-seu. Here's how it's built, how to say it, and what people will call you.
Chase letter by letter
Each Hangul block is one syllable, built from a consonant, a vowel and sometimes a final consonant underneath.
스 carries the filler vowel ㅡ (eu). Keep it short and light, almost just the consonant.
- ㅊ at the start is aspirated: a clear puff of air, like the ch in "church".
- ㅇ at the top of 이 is silent, so 이 is just the vowel: i.
- Give all 3 syllables the same weight. Korean has no strong stress, so it's che-i-seu, evenly.
How Koreans would call you
Korean given names are almost always two syllables (after a one-syllable family name), so at 3 syllables 체이스 reads as a foreign name at a glance. With foreign names some Koreans skip 야 and just say 체이스 or 체이스 씨.
Why it's spelled 체이스
Spelled letter-by-letter you'd get 체이즈, but Korean media write 체이스, because the name is written the way it sounds, not the way it's spelled.
- The final e is silent. It only makes the vowel before it long.
- Korean adds the vowel ㅡ to consonants that have no vowel of their own (스), which is why Chase has 3 syllables in Korean.
