New Members Fightergirl Posted April 3, 2011 at 04:38 PM New Members Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 at 04:38 PM Hi I got this tattoo when I was 16, it was supposed to mean Destiny but I am nearly sure it doesn't, it has been annoying me for years.. Im not even sure it means anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylee Posted April 4, 2011 at 01:38 PM Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 at 01:38 PM Yeah it means something like that. Take a look at its dictionary definitions (the first five) - http://cdict.net/?q=%E7%B7%A3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymoose Posted April 4, 2011 at 01:47 PM Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 at 01:47 PM It looks a bit different to the character skylee linked to in her post. Or is that just a font issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbradfor Posted April 4, 2011 at 02:07 PM Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 at 02:07 PM Which part looks different? If you mean the upper right, I think that difference is just a variant difference; see http://dict.variants.moe.edu.tw/yitia/fra/fra03155.htm If you mean the bottom right, I think that's just due to a tattoo artist that isn't used to writing Chinese characters.

skylee Posted April 4, 2011 at 02:13 PM Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 at 02:13 PM I think there is an extra / misplaced dot on the left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iriya Posted April 4, 2011 at 04:14 PM Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 at 04:14 PM It's the Japanese variant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes, I see it now, at the end of the second downward-left line in 豕. It could be worse though :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skylee Posted April 4, 2011 at 04:53 PM Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 at 04:53 PM But I think it is all right la, at least the character can be recognised instantly and the shape is not bad or distorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Members 凭虚御风 Posted April 11, 2011 at 06:25 AM New Members Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 at 06:25 AM The character is between 缘 and 绿（green）, It is too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
