New Members ovathere Posted August 7, 2017 at 02:12 AM New Members Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 at 02:12 AM Hi. I was wondering if someone could help me with this translation. I went to a spa and the woman wrote this on a "buy 10 get one free card.". So I'm just curious what it says. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edelweis Posted August 8, 2017 at 07:59 PM Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 at 07:59 PM could it be 二〇十七八月四（号）? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abcdefg Posted August 9, 2017 at 09:21 AM Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 at 09:21 AM It says, "I love you. Call me at home later tonight." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Members ovathere Posted August 9, 2017 at 09:59 AM Author New Members Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 at 09:59 AM Right. So she'd write that in a different language so I couldn't read it. Makes total sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lu Posted August 9, 2017 at 12:10 PM Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 at 12:10 PM Is that a 背 in the upper right corner? I can't make ouf the rest of it, but my best guess is that it's a note for their internal documentation, on the treatment you got, or the date, or something else mundane like that.

somethingfunny Posted August 9, 2017 at 03:18 PM Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 at 03:18 PM It looks like a cross between 背 and 指. The bottom looks a bit like 苏. I agree with Lu. Maybe you could ask when you go back for your free go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roddy Posted August 9, 2017 at 03:46 PM Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 at 03:46 PM Hang on, is it maybe the name of whoever gave the treatment? Something like that you'd expect to be stamped or signed so the customer can't just fill it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
889 Posted August 9, 2017 at 05:04 PM Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 at 05:04 PM No, you get 1 free like the 10 you paid for, so they mark down which one you took. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lu Posted August 9, 2017 at 07:14 PM Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 at 07:14 PM 3 hours ago, somethingfunny said: The bottom looks a bit like 苏. I think it looks like it might be a shorthand for 兩. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
889 Posted August 9, 2017 at 07:34 PM Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 at 07:34 PM Yes, like fuwuyuan in restaurants, they probably have a simplified way of writing down common orders. It would be easier to work backward on this if the OP told us what he ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lips Posted August 10, 2017 at 02:14 AM Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 at 02:14 AM Wild, wild guess : 石背 (a treatment) 苏 (name of person who applied the treatment) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Members ovathere Posted August 10, 2017 at 03:08 AM Author New Members Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 at 03:08 AM Ah, thank you. That would make sense because then they'd know gave the treatment. Thank you for your help! I greatly appreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingfunny Posted August 10, 2017 at 05:56 AM Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 at 05:56 AM Interesting. It still looks more like a 70 and the third stroke of 背 doesn't work for me. Who knows if OP will ever come back. He seemed pretty satisfied with the first couple of translations he got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
