What 실 means
On its own, it names sewing or knitting thread.
As the Korean suffix -실, it means a room or office unit: 강의실 is a lecture room and 사무실 is an office. A separate word, 실의, means dejection or loss of hope.
The 1446 Hunminjeongeum commentary, an early explanation of Hangul, uses 실 as a silk example while discussing ㄹ at the end of a syllable. Hangul was devised to write Korean; its syllables combine letters into blocks, and 실 is built from ㅅ, ㅣ, and ㄹ.
