I don't know anything about those symbols. I wanted a tattoo with the Chinese symbol for health, later found out it said soy sauce.

Never, ever get a hanzi (Chinese) or kanji (Japanese) character tattoo unless you are absolutely certain of it's meaning. These logograms are components of alphabets containing over 3000 symbols and minor differences between the strokes can change the meaning significantly. :eek:

So I was in Baltimore, coupla years back, nice bar/restaurant kinda place. Young bartender guy, looks Asian, and I see two Chinese characters, Japanese kanji, on his forearm. I say, incredulously, "Is your name Ishikawa?" He says, yep, proudly, yes indeed.

To me it would be kinda like having somebody tattoo "Johnson" on my forearm....

Once, at the gym, I saw a young lady with three Chinese ideograms tattooed on her shoulder. I asked her what they meant.

"Peace, love, and moderation."

"Whoa. A guy can get too much of that."

Hmm, methinks an anatomy lesson is in order, here.

Actually, the Japanese have three alphabets depending on what you're writing about. I forget the names of the other two besides kanji.

I know Chinese have several dialects, I don't know how you can narrow down which one it is, but probably only a speaker of that dialect will be able to read it. I once took a filipina girlfriend from Angeles City to a town about 20 minutes away. She couldn't understand any of the signs or speech.

Just to stay on topic, my best guess is "Hoo Flung Poo?"

Chinese has many spoken languages, but only one written one.

This character, # (not a real Chinese character), might be pronounced WO in Cantonese, MA in Shanghanese and PUDA in Mandarin, but it means HOUSE in all three of them (none of those three are real Chinese words, either).

I know a lady from Shanghai. Her name, ##, is Fen Ying. She moved to Hong Kong, where the language is Cantonese. There, her name, still spelled ##, was Wen Ying. Here in the states, her name on all documents (including naturalization papers) is in Mandarin, since Mandarin is the official language of China. Still written ##, but pronounced Man Ying.
 
policerevolvercollector, I'm sorry, I really am, but you asked for it. Hopefully Badquaker will come through for you. Just guessing, I would think the red block is the artist's stamp.
