Hello,
I'm looking for the translation of the word Live [as in live life] for a tattoo if someone could help me out. Thank you.
I'm not sure but is it this: "live" = जीव ?

What you found, looks similar to the ones that I am seeing in the search that I did on the following site. Sanskrit Dictionary for Spoken Sanskrit (http://www.spokensanskrit.de/index.php?script=HK&tinput=live&country_ID=&trans=Translate&direction=AU) Did you get your information from that site, or a site like it?

I do seem to get some reasonably good results from the site that is referenced above. I do wish that we had a designated expert here in translating words into Sanskrit. However, every once in awhile someone does show up who really knows their stuff about translating written words from other languages into the written Sanskrit. Hopefully, someone like that will come along and notice your post.

You may have to try the site above in the different ways that are available and maybe also try some things that is suggested on it in order for you to be successful.

Yes. This is correct.
