Getting a Chinese tattoo and making sure it's accurate
Foreign language tattoo art is exciting because it has a level
exoticness to it that easily distinguishable tattoos don't have.
It's fun to use a character or symbol language for your tattoo
because it looks better than having a simple word done. For example,
a Chinese tattoo of the world "power" is a lot more alluring and
mysterious than the written word.
If you are considering getting Chinese tattoos in the language,
be very careful. There are plenty of services on the Internet that
are willing to take your money and provide you with a Chinese
translation, but be sure to choose a reputable service if you choose
to go this route. It's best to consult with native speakers and/or
language experts to ensure that your tattoo -- a lifetime commitment
on your body -- says what you think it does.
One way to ensure that your tattoo in the Chinese language is
accurate is to read up on the subject. Amazon.com carries books on
the subject, including Chinese Characters: The Art of Painting
the Word, which not only explains the art of Chinese calligraphy
but also includes ideas for tattoos. Spending ten or so dollars for
a book can save you from getting embarrassed later.
Names, words, proverbs or sayings, and zodiac symbols all make
for fun and exotic tattoos in Chinese characters. Let your tattoo be
a mystery to other people. Your tattoo will surely intrigue them.
The beauty of Chinese calligraphy will also make for truly
attractive body art that will please the eye for years to come.
