Kanji question!!?

Question

Ive been trying to find "Spread your wings and fly" in kanji symbols. I cant seem to find it anywhere! Im also wondering if I could just take three kanji symbols... "Spread" "Wings" "Fly" (in that order) and would it translate to the same thing? If anyone has any ideas, please let me know! Its being incorporated into a tattoo that ive been working on, so I cant have it being read wrong!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Answer 1

Triple check your kanji with native Japanese speakers (I promise that the people at sushi restaurants can be very helpful), otherwise you could end up like these people (which is also a good site to get information about Japanese/Chinese tattoos): http://www.hanzismatter.com/

Answer 2

That phrase will take up more than 3 characters. (they're called characters, not symbols) You also need to use the characters that are picking up the correct form of the word in order to saw what you really want to say. Otherwise, it will be gibberish. Either speak to someone that is fluent or go on a website that is genuinely a Japanese site. Also to let you know, most Japanese resturants are actually owned by Korean and Chinese...my Japanese friend used to always complain about that and would only go to one because he knew it was genuinely Japanese owned.

Answer 3

you could but then it wouldn't make any sense. the phrase will literally be spread wings fly, not spread your wings and fly. Also it's more than 3 characters. I don't know if it's exactly the same in kanji but since kanji is basically Chinese anyways this is what it is in Chinese. If you want it in Japanese then the phrase will not be in pure kanji. I hope this is right..

開放
(open)

翼
(wings)

飛 / 飛行
fly / to take flight

Answer 4

speak with your local tattoo shop. they can help you get the correct wording done right.
