derdy Posted April 2, 2010 at 08:15 PM Report Posted April 2, 2010 at 08:15 PM I want to get "Resist" in Chinese for a tattoo. Can someone help me with the translation to the Chinese character? TIA Quote

derdy Posted April 3, 2010 at 05:11 PM Author Report Posted April 3, 2010 at 05:11 PM Thank you both very much. Is there any difference in the meaning or context of the different sets of characters? Quote

derdy Posted April 5, 2010 at 11:56 PM Author Report Posted April 5, 2010 at 11:56 PM So if got 抵抗 tattooed on me, in what context would the translation come across as? Essentially, the context I'm looking for is the opposite of "obey" Quote
Kenny同志 Posted April 6, 2010 at 02:25 AM Report Posted April 6, 2010 at 02:25 AM (edited) So if got 抵抗 tattooed on me, in what context would the translation come across as? It is a military term. If you 抵抗 something, something is most likely the enemy forces. Essentially, the context I'm looking for is the opposite of "obey" In that case, 叛逆 will do, I think. Good luck.
