Chinese Tattoo Letters Symbols Writing and Meaning Translations

The written letters and symbols that make up the language of the ancient and honorable land of China are a combination of expression of ideas and caligraphy as artwork. Chinese letters or symbals, possibly because of their generations of evolution to near perfection as art are a pure form of expression as body art in the form of tattoos.

However that evolution of Chinese lettering symbols has also led to great diversity of meaning in those letters or characters. These letter variations may have subtle differences in meaning or vastly different meanings between Chinese provinces and of course in tattoos lettered in Kenji between China, Japan, Korea, Thailand and other asian nations that have borrowed from the chinese lettering and symbol system through the eons.

Those seeking a Chinese letter or symbol tattoo had therefore give thought and do research before inking something on a shoulder, wrist, arm, chest or back that has a meaning in Chinese that is completely different in Japan, or worse, receive a permanently and painfully inked chinese letter symbol that means something entirely different from what the interpreter told them the symbol meant.

By example we will use the Chinese symbols for the various meanings of strength where different character additions and even strokes can make the meanings subtly and or drasticlly different.

If you google search 'Chinese letter or symbol for strength', the first item you find it this character:

However only the first symbol means strength, the second adding a connotation of Power.

Conversely if your Chinese letter or symbol tattoo artist or interpretter did not ask if you wanted a tatoo showing 'inner strength' as opposed to 'strength/power' you would be inked with the above instead of the correct chinees letters symbolized here:

And so you see how you would be wearing a tattoo letter symbol that means a very different kind of strength than that which you wanted to wear for the rest of your life. Do your homework before you let any tattoo artist put a Chinese letter or symbol on you. We have found a credible, inexpensive reference eBook by a lovely Chinese woman and tattoo artist named Yingying. We have reviewed her work and placed a link to buy it on page 4 of the Chinese Tattoo catagory in our Tattoo and Body Art Department, or you can go directly to her site by clicking on her name below:
