tattoo help

[dancingjinx]

Hi there, I have the mandarin character on my back for dance and posture. I want to get something above it like music, love, creation etc. I really want to know if I have a symbol above it will it change the meaning? Sorry for my ignorance but I dont want a dodgy tattoo. My ex's mother designed my last one as a native mandarin speaker.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Do you mean to combine a new character with the one you already have? If so, could you post a picture or something of the one you have?

I think it alone looks good enough. Any thing added might look like 画蛇添足（feet to a snake).

舞

Basically means dance, dancing (n.), or to dance (v.) and

derived from the basic meaning, it can also mean some acts or movements that related to, relavant to dancing.

Moved the query about the "strong dog" tattoo to its own thread.

You can solve that problem by installing Chinese fonts on your computer. Also, what monto was saying was not that it would actually mean "feet on a snake", but rather this is a Chinese expression used to describe adding something extra where it is not necessary and therefore ruining it.
