New Members Carp696 Posted July 16, 2013 at 05:53 AM New Members Report Posted July 16, 2013 at 05:53 AM Someone told my friend that her tattoo meant soup. I know enough chinese that I know it doesnt mean soup but i honestly have no idea what it actually means. It looks alot like the word mind but I cant figure the rest out. I guess I just dont know enough yet. Any help would be appreciated. Quote

Lu Posted July 16, 2013 at 04:00 PM Report Posted July 16, 2013 at 04:00 PM The Tattoo artist told her it meant mind thought and will.That's about right. It's one of those words that have somewhat of a range of meaning. Quote

New Members Carp696 Posted July 16, 2013 at 05:54 PM Author New Members Report Posted July 16, 2013 at 05:54 PM I had noticed that. It looked backwards. I'm guessing that it being backwards changes the meaning. Quote
淨土極樂 Posted July 17, 2013 at 04:31 AM Report Posted July 17, 2013 at 04:31 AM Yes, it does. Now it means 'hey look at me, I wanted to look cool without knowing any Chinese'. Quote
