How to understand チラツ ?
My textbook gives "leaflet" as a translation. It's in katakana, though, so I'm looking for a corresponding English word, but what is it?
"Flyers" > "Leaflets"
The word would most often refer to the (advertising) flyers that are inserted in newspapers. In Japan, many flyers are also thrown into your mailbox (without your permission).
It is 「チラシ」, not 「チラツ」. It is the シ in サシスセソ, not the ツ in タチツテト.
Finally, forget the kanji some people mentioned in the comments above for now. To refer to "flyers", 「チラシ」 is basically never written using that kanji.
