The spelling of the word "Charbocle" can be a little confusing, but using IPA phonetic transcription can help clarify it. The correct spelling is actually "carbuncle", which is pronounced /ˈkɑːbʌŋkəl/ in IPA. The first syllable is pronounced as "car" with a long "a" sound, followed by "bun" with a short "u" sound, and ending with "cle" with a hard "k" sound. Carbuncle refers to a large, infected boil or abscess on the skin, and is often painful and red in appearance.
