Abelladonna Posted February 18, 2010 at 06:23 PM Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 at 06:23 PM Hello, I was wondering if someone here could possibly help me. My husband has tattoos on his left shoulder blade in traditional Chinese that according to him say "strength and love" and on his right that say "weakness and hate". Our birthdays (which are separated by one day, which happens also to be our wedding anniversary) are a week away and for my gift to him I wanted to get a tattoo on my left shoulder blade in traditional Chinese that stands for "love and devotion" in the sense that a wife would have for her husband. However not speaking the language myself obviously leaves me at an extreme disadvantage as there are many different images that come up when searching. I know gender and connotation mean EVERYTHING. Any assistance would be a great help and very appreciated as I want to make sure I get it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrix Posted February 21, 2010 at 04:09 PM Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 at 04:09 PM Also, would it be possible for you to post an imagery of the tattoos your husband has? That way it'd be easier to find something that would match it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
