    Hello drkpp Can you help me transliterate the names: August and Astrid. Thanks
    I want a tattoo of my new born sons name: August in Sanskrit or Hindi.

    Can anyone help? Perhaps also my wife's name: Astrid

    Hi, niels!

    drkpp will need to have the exact, phonetic pronunciations of the names in order to help you the best. So, if you could provide those, it would be helpful.

    Thanks!

    August is pronounced: Au-gust
    As phonetic trancription it is [ɑgəst]

    Astrid is pronounced: A-strid
    As phonetic trancription it is [æstrəd]

    Hope this is any help

    drkpp might actually need a bit more, but that's a good start! If you're going to have them for a tattoos that would be permanently placed on your body, I would assume that you would what them to be as correct as possible.

    Thanks!

    Thank u very much.

    Can you also help me with the name: Andrea

    Pronounced: An-dre-a
    As phonetic transcription it is [ændriə]

    Is it possible to translate a date? For instance 8th of August? 08.08.2008? (The day I first met my wife)

    Many thanks for the help so far, it is very kind of you :-)
