Tatto 2013

The tattoo in the picture below is often given as an example of a failed tattoo (I've founded the same confusion even on hanzismatter.blogspot, a blog which belongs to someone who seems to have vast knowledge of Chinese and Japanese languages). If we consider only the Chinese reading of these characters, the tattoo's meaning is "fool, sucker" - 呆 (pronunciation: dai with the first tone) = dull; dull-minded, simple, stupid; 子 (pronunciation: zi with the third tone) = offspring, child; together they form the word 呆子 (daizi) which means "fool, stupid, sucker". On the other hand, in Japanese 呆子 is just one of the nearly 300 ways (I know, it's hard to believe that there are really that many) to write the popular name "Akiko". In conclusion, this is not (such) a failed tattoo. Similar posts: Stupidity is painful Another failed kanji / hanzi tattoo A cool guy... or a bad woman?

Simplified chinese: Hànzì: 失恋; pinyin: shī​liàn Usually when I draw a tattoo I try to integrate one or more ideograms (either japanese Kanji or chinese Hanzi) in various tribal or floral patterns. In this case, I've used some tribal-style hearts and the word 失恋 (disappointed love / unrequited love / to lose one's love / being lovelorn). This word (失恋) has the same meaning both in chinese and in japanese (of course, the pronunciations are different: the japanese pronunciation is shitsuren and the chinese pronunciation is shīliàn - first tone and the fourth ton...
