This does NOT fix the fact that this is a very bad way to accomplish
your goal.  Nor does it fix your possible overrun of the vector.  It
does, however, give you working C++ code.

int main()
{
    vector < char >word(10);    // ten letter word
    int k = 0;                      // counter
    char letter;                // no need
    while (cin >> letter)       // input letter by letter . . . one step
at a 
                                // time
    {

of
                                // the vector
        k++;                    // increases counter

    for (char *k = word.begin(); k < word.end(); k++)
