The spelling of the word "Hattil" may be a bit confusing for some, but understanding the IPA phonetic transcription can help. The word is pronounced as /ˈhætɪl/ with the stress on the first syllable. The "h" is pronounced as a voiced fricative, much like in the word "house". The "a" is pronounced like the "a" in "cat". The "t" is pronounced as an unvoiced plosive, and the "i" sounds like the "i" in "it". The final "l" is pronounced as a voiced lateral approximant.
