MontyPL

Friend of mine wants to make a "Strength" tattoo in chinese. She was googling for translation and found four different symbols. Few months before you helped with my tattoo, I hope this time you will help her

力 = strength
力量 = Strength (engergy)
力氣 = strength (physical strength)
勁 = powerful
勁力 = powerful strength

do u think this helps?

booksale

強 = strong

but the word 勁 has the meaning as powerful than strength.

this is 力 = strength.

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at an elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht
oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht frist and
lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can
sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by
istlef but the wrod as a wlohe.

i prefer to "劲", cause it's an adj word. another example, some make a "勇" tattoo, it means "brave"!!!
