where did you get the symbol from in the first place?
goodle images or a specific site?

From a specific site, tattoo something another, I can't remember actually...

I'm no expert on Orential glyphs, but I think your's says.....

"Please pass the sweet and sour shrimp"

OK, I know that's just silly, and I'll look it up in my book and give you the real answer.

It says...Oh nuts, light of my life, will you do me the honour of de-bacheloring me..I can't live without you for another minute of my retched existence on this planet we call ...Uranus. ...???...hmmm (interesting )

So my answer?... I will give you my answer when we land back home.. till then, how about this.. sound good?

Hope I helped.

Nice responses.

I lol'd.

Sweet & sour shrimp, hmm... lol

"de-bacheloring"... omg lolol.

Oh my gosh, this is too funny! I hope you figure out what it means before you get it tatooed on your body if you intend to!

It is kinda nice though, even if it could be an obscenity for all you know.

Ummmm, if I am correct, it means undercover freak...hahahaha!

Sorry, had to lol too funny!

No pun intended!

I'm pretty sure it's a "Kanji symbol" Here are some popular ones - Kanji Symbols. Although I couldn't seen to find it, elements of it were in othere symbols. Maybe you'll have some luck seeing as you know what it's supposed to say.

edit: This is probably a better place to look actually - Click!
(as long as it's not too obscure like 'monkey balls steath warrior' or something.)

How many kanji are there?

There is no reliable data on the exact number of Chinese characters that have ever been used. The most comprehensive character dictionary, the Dai Kan-Wa Jiten compiled by the Japanese Morohashi Tetsuji (13 volumes, 1955–1960), lists about 50,000 kanji. The number of kanji listed in most Japanese character dictionaries runs to about 10,000 to 20,000. The larger bilingual character dictionaries for foreigners list about 6,000 to 7,000 kanji. The government recommends that everyday and official use be limited to a list of 1,945 kanji, the so-called Jōyō Kanji. University students are expected to know somewhat more than 2,000 kanji. In the first six years of schooling, students are taught the 1,006 so-called Gakushū Kanji (“learning kanji”).

Well, I tried to remember my 'Kanji' with little and no luck. But I see 'sword' (top) and 'heart/mind' (below).

Aye nice catch It seem's there's a little blob next to the left of bachelors 'sword' part though.

edit: well 'blade' is similar to 'sword' so I'd guess it could mean 'sharp mind'?

'I SAW that!' I'm still researching, though. So maybe the symbol means an unknown glob next to a sword over spirit/on mind/heart.

reply to post by pikypiky


Lol, I'm going to see if I can find the symbol for 'sharp' (see edit in above post)

edit: No luck, I'm clutching at straws.....

Want me to tell you what it means? Or at least what the site I got it from, says it is supposed to mean?

Okay, enough with the suspense! Please tell us what it means so I could go to sleep.

What a cute name that is... it reminds me of Pikachu.

**Pika pika... Piiiiiiii...kaaaaaaaa.... PikaCHUUuuuuu... PiiiikaCHU!

K...

It means "To Endure", as shown/defined about 3/4 the way down on this page ~~> link

reply to post by Bachelor


Thanks for the 'endure' definition'! At least, I didn't turn into a pumpkin before midnight! Yeah, well, you're right on about Pikachu -- a tiny yellow fellow with a powerful charge. I wonder what a Chinese tattoo would look like for something small but powerful. Good night.

You're welcome Piky.

Goodnight... dream of yellow, electrified things...
