Hi there - I am after a tattoo that will read "Survive, Inspire". Alternatively "Survive and Inspire" would be OK. I did a quick translation search and the following was the best I could come up with.

生存和鼓励

If there is a better translation out there could anyone let me know - I would like to use a few characters as possible. Alternatively if there is a well known saying that covers what I amafter then let meknow this as well.

Many thanks!!

here i provide you severl very cool words for tattoo, but the meaning is not what you want,

1,"炎" this is the name of an ancient king of the chinese people , he is against another king "黄" which is considered as the ancestor of the chinses people , they have a great war , but "炎" lost, later they are both regarded as god in chinese culthure, and this word, you can see, is formed by two "火" which means fire in chinese , doesn't it cool?

2,,"義" this word may be just can be explained in chinese , it shows a very loyal emotion to one's buddies, for one's freinds he can give his life up, it may have the similar meaning as "toa" in english .but it is more that in chinese

just for your reference

Hi there - I have finally decided on the symbols I am after for my tattoo and I just wanted to make sure if I lay them out in a certain way that it will still make sense when reading them. The layout I want will look like this as I'll probably get it running down my leg:

Firstly could someone tell me of this makes sense (it hopefully says "Survive Inspire"), and secondly if it still reads the same if it is written vertically.

Many thanks!
