chrism2050 Posted October 31, 2008 at 10:46 AM Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 at 10:46 AM I have downloaded this image and before I get it tattoo'd onto my body I wanted to check that it is correct first. Can anyone tell me what this says? I'm hoping you tell me what I think it says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrism2050 Posted October 31, 2008 at 11:54 AM Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 at 11:54 AM What I think this say's is Love / Passion and it is used as a traditional seal or stamp. Is my understanding correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lu Posted October 31, 2008 at 02:54 PM Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 at 02:54 PM The character is 情 qing2, and I'd translate it as 'feeling', but 'love' is also a possible translation. 愛 ai4 means love, you can consider that one as well. You're correct that this is a seal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renzhe Posted October 31, 2008 at 03:01 PM Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 at 03:01 PM I don't know if you'd like to tattoo a seal on yourself -- it will look like somebody rubberstamped you. Perhaps tattooing the character itself is better? I'd agree with Lu, "feeling" or "emotion" is closer than "love" or "passion", though it does appear in both words.(愛情 and 激情).
