Writing on a T-Shirt from Vietnam - 光静竜

[whereishunter]

I bought a T-shirt when I was last in Vietnam and it has this written on it. 光静竜.

All the Chinese people that I know dont know what 竜 means. I also asked a Vietnamese friend and they also didnt understand it!!

I think it could mean bright and calm emperor/dragon ....

But I'm really not sure.

竜 is a japanese kanji meaning dragon, same as 龍 in Chinese.

[Hofmann]

It's Chinese.

【集韻】龍古作竜。註見部首。　又【類篇】起也。　又地名。

【字彙補】雲南有佴革竜地，有九山最險。

You seem to be right, it's listed in the Kangxi dictionary: http://www.kangxizidian.com/kangxi/0870.gif

I thought it was a Japanese simplification.

I'd say it's an ancient Chinese character as well as a modern Japanese character.
