Wow! a great looking doodle

Hi, everyone! Usually I say only negative things about the ridiculous Kanji/Hanzi tattoos that can be usually seen on the internet, but today I'm in a good mood, so in this post I'll try to say something positive. So, instead of saying that this is an absolutely ridiculous, poorly written, hideous Kanji/Hanzi tattoo, I'll say that this is a first-rate doodle-tattoo.

One of the worst articles about Kanji/Hanzi tattoos I have ever read (2)

Hi, everyone! In this post I'll continue to highlight the errors that I've found in this absolutely ridiculous article.

Let's take a look at the picture above. This ideogram (loyal, loyalty, fidelity, faithfulness, devoted) is one of the most common chinese/japanese ideograms. Instead, Mrs Kaylee Smith (the author of the article) has nothing to say about this ideogram, except the fact that it has "a striking resemblance to a human face". It's obvious that the so-called "expert" has absolutely no idea about the significance of the ideogram (which, I repeat, is a very simple and a very well known one).

"...the love bond between sisters"?? Another wrong translation. In fact, first ideogram means "little sister" and the second ideogram means "forever", so the meaning of these two ideograms taken together could be something like "little sister forever"?? (I don't know this word and I couldn't find it in any dictionary).

"tattoo with the Chinese symbol and an year name in digits"??? Huh? Thit does not make much sense, right? Anyway, the ideogram means "tiger", not "Year of the Tiger".

A pretty ugly Kanji/Hanzi tattoo, some misspelled strokes, bla, bla, bla, this time I won't pay attention to details, because we have a huge translation-mistake here. Let's see what Mrs K.Smith says about the meaning of the ideograms: "Chinese symbols for luck, respect and strength". Oh, really? Where? On the first (horizontal) line we have "respect". On the second line we have "luck, fortune". But where could be the word which means "strength"?

And the last, but not the least mistake (the last because I got tired reading stupid article and comments, not because there wouldn't be other mistakes on creativefan). Mrs Kaylee says: "This triangular Chinese symbol series stands for mother, brotherhood and supermarket." C'mmon, Kaylee, "supermarket"??? Before seeing this post I was convinced that Mrs Kaylee is a very shallow person. Now, I doubt that she is a real person at all.

Wow! The tell of love!

Recently, while I was looking for some ridiculous tattoos to make fun of them I've found this little gem on ratemyink.com:

The person who posted the photo says about this tattoo: My best friend did this one. It means I Love You in Japanese. (see the picture above).

Well, she is wrong, and I'll briefly explain why:
1. The ideogram is poorly written and is missing several strokes
2. "shiteru" is written with Katakana, but it should be written with hiragana (read this article on wikipedia if you want to know more about the differences between Hiragana and Katakana.)
3. The Kana characters should be written on the same line
4. The first character written in Katakana (shi) is missing two strokes, so it's not the "shi" character anymore, it's "no". This mistake transforms the phrase from "ai shiteru" (I love you) in the moronic phrase "ai no teru", which means "The tell of love" (tell = type of archaeological mound created by human occupation and abandonment of a geographical site over many centuries).

"Be the change!" tattoo. This is a really good advice. You should start with the tattoo itself!

Despite the many positive reviews which can be seen on the Internet (see the PrintScreen below), this tattoo is not a "cool Hanzi tattoo" or a "Chinese symbol tattoo" or a "cool wrist tattoo" or anything else of this kind. In fact this is nothing else than another failed Kanji/Hanzi tattoo drawn by someone who doesn't know anything about Chinese/Japanese writing.

And definitely this deformed ideogram does not mean "bike", as some people think, despite the fact that the ideogram is so poorly written that it looks more like a severely damaged bike rather than the original ideogram (成 - Chinese pronunciation:"chéng", japanese pronunciation:"naru/nasu/joo/sei"; meaning: "to finish / to complete / to accomplish / to become / to turn into / to change into"). In the image below you can see what this ideogram should look like:

In the end I have a piece of advice for the guy who wear this tattoo: dude, if you want to be the change or to be a part of the great change (as your tattoo suggests), you should start the change with this ridiculous tattoo.

This "Wife" Kanzi/Hanzi is missing several strokes. Maybe the woman who wear the tattoo feels like something is missing in her marriage :)

Yesterday I've found on creativefan.com one of the worst articles about Kanji/Hanzi tattoos I have ever read. The author of the article has absolutely no idea about Chinese/Japanese writing system, but this didn't stop him/her to write an article full of ridiculous opinions and meaningless advices. For example, let's take a look at this photo:

As you can see, there is also a short description of the image: This woman is pleased to become a wife and has got a tattoo with flowers to express her happiness and pride. Yeah, sure. But it seems to me that she want to express not only her happiness and pride but also her ignorance, because the Hanzi/Kanji is missing several strokes. For a comparison look at the image below (I know, it isn't a particularly good looking ideogram, but at least, it is properly written).
