Understanding Kanji Tattoos, Hiragana and Katakana Japanese Symbols
The origin of Kanji Tattoos or Japanese Kanji are the Chinese characters used in modern day Japanese logographic writing together with Hiragana and Katakana scripts. In Japanese, the term Kanji simply means "Han characters".
Kanji Tattoos are symbols and scripts based based on simple and complex ideographic characters ( An ideogram or ideograph is a graphic symbol that represents an idea, rather than a group of letters arranged according to the phonemes of a spoken language ).
Kanji characters can represent objects, ideas, meanings and more in a single character structure form. By viewing the Kanji Tattoo characters or set of characters, people can understand the meanings of the Kanji Tattoos right away.
Below are two examples of Japanese Kanji in a Single Character form and with two characters and the meanings in English.
Written in Kanji in Single Character Form ( Daughter )
Written in Kanji in Double Character Form ( Hope )
As you can see from the above examples, Kanji Tattoos can show meanings of words in visually expressive ways. The Kanji Dictionary consists of thousands of Characters / Symbols which represent and mean so many different things. The Kanji strokes on a single character can sometimes exceed over 20 strokes.
