Need a Kanji Translated? Just ask!

[NattyBumppo]

I've never seen that character before; either it's garbage (or maybe Chinese) or you're writing it wrong.
Are you sure it's not this?
宋

 

[checho]

No, it is not
Well thank you I will ask in a Chinese forum :

 

[Mikawa Ossan]

It looks to me like an abbreviated character as they use in mainland China. Unfornately, I don't know what the original character was...those abbreviated characters are all Greek to me.

 

[NattyBumppo]

I agree, it looks like simplified Chinese. Let us know if you find out, checho!

 

[checho]

Well I've asked in the same forum, but not in the kanji part and they told me it was a Chinese character and it means "joyful" :

Just for everyone's reference, checho's question was answered in this thread:

Finally found the right place for this request; apologies for my incompetence.
Hello,
Firstly, if this a grossly inappropriate place to ask for advice on this matter I apologise, please just disregard my post!
Im interested in getting a Kanji Tattoo on my the inside of my left forearm and I want to avoid the common pitfalls on Kanji tattoos; I want the characters I choose to reflect the meaning / context I have in mind, rather than use some characters and have them mean something completely different when translated accurately!
I want the tattoo to read
"A strong Life is the hardest to live"
I think at least it should contain some of these characters:
Strong
強
Life
生
Hard / difficult
難
But thats about as far as I can get! Im sure that if i arranged these characters into a literal translation it would just be gibberish to read so I would love to get some advice from Kanji writers
Thanks for your time in advance.

Foreign names don't have certain Kanjis attached to them. They are usually all written in Katakana. There is a Kanji meaning mother though.... 母

You can pick out Kanji that would pronounce like the name would, but it would not make sense to anybody.

What similar meanings of "kill" is exist, except 殺める？

 

[Adam Oke]

I am curious as to what this character means. I would like confirmation that is in fact "flight". Please state the language and style. Thanks!

 

[Jericho Desu]

Hi, what is the reading of these Kanji? 名前 They were used to answer a question I had in a different thread here so I'd like to know how they can be used in other ways, individually or together.

Thanks for any help

It is indeed "fly": 飛

Have no idea what style it is.

 

[Chidoriashi]

Jericho Desu> that word is is namae and means name.

Kanji for trust?

Hello!, I found this forum while I was looking for a kanji that means "trust" or "true" and I think this is the right place to get the right answer.
After many hours I think this is the kanji I was looking for:

信

Some places I've found the meaning and how to write it:

信 - Wiktionary

Japanese Kanji Dictionary

Am I right?, is there any meaning besides faith, truth, fidelity or trust?
Thank you so much in advance.. I'm trying to read the whole thread but I'm at work and my boss is near :emoji_blush:

 

[Chidoriashi]

hHow about this one... 真 its meaning is truth/reality etc. pronounced ま・しん
写真ーpicture, 真実ーtruth, etc..

 

[tokapi]

that word is namae and means name.

名前 ( namae ) is specifically mean " given name or first name ",right

 

[undrentide]

名前 ( namae ) is specifically mean " given name or first name ", right

Namae could mean given name, but not necessarily.
It also means full name, or family name.
So if you are asked "anata no onamae wa?" (what's your name?), you can answer
- boku no namae wa Tarou (given name) desu.
- boku no namae wa Yamada (family name) desu.
- boku no namae wa Yamada Tarou desu.

 

[Ilpalazzo]

how about this one... 真 its meaning is truth/reality etc. pronounced ま・しん
写真ーpicture, 真実ーtruth, etc..

So 真 means "truth, reality, just, exactly, pure, true, genuine". Is it wrong to use 信 if I'm trying to say trust like Trust/Honesty?. I've found that 信 is linked to virtues associated with martial arts.

I have a two part request/queston.

Yoshihiro Akiyama is a zainichi Korean fighter whose name written in Kanji is "秋山成勳" while his name written in Hanja is "秋成勳". Why is the "山" added upon translation from Hanja to Kanji or omitted when vice versa? Where does the "Yoshihiro" part of his name come from? I've search around and the translation for "成勳" doesn't come out as "Yoshihiro" do any of you guys know where it comes from or how it translates?

I am a Korean-American and I was just wondering how my name would translate from Hanja to Kanji (due to addition of "山" in first question) and how my name would translate from Kanji to Romaji. Or from Hanja to Romaji.
My Korean name written in Hanja: 趙容旭.

Thank you very much for being so helpful and embracing me into this community.

 

[Chidoriashi]

Well, i am no expert and just going off my vocab knowledge... but I think 信 is more like trust or confidence in someone or something.. and 真 is more absolute or pure truth.

 

[tokapi]

I need to know what this means

the problem is I don't know if it is a kanji or no, but there's is no way to understand...

It's Simplified Chinese character 乐 ( 樂 Traditional Chinese script ) meaning " happy " & " glad " & " enjoy ".
