Hey guys a friend of a friend has got his first tattoo (congrats and all that) He went for a quote from a novel on his forearm translated into chinese.

Me and the mates have a little pool going to see if the translation is actually what it was supposed to be 😀

If anyone can read/speak chinese and translate it would be much appreciated!

Thanks for the reply Clay!

the quote is meant to read “Beauty will save the world”

we thought it was probably right as the first symbol means beauty and the last 2 mean world.

Im guessing chinese is one of those complicated languages in which diff symbols may have different meanings depending on context or region?
