        How can I be sure my sanskrit tattoo is correct?
       
                  
        Hi,
 I am hoping to get a tattoo soon in sanskrit with the phrase 'It is written.'  I have used 3 different translators and have had different responses.  I am keen to get the correct tattoo.  Can anyone help me please and give me the correct translation.
 
 Thanks in advance for any help.
 
 Here is one I was given:  लिखितमेतद्

        Hi, moosmum!
 Yes, it's definitely best to be getting more than one opinion concerning something that will be placed permanantely on your body!
 
 drkpp is a member here who does translations professionally.  Hopefully, drkpp will come along to address your question.
 
 Thanks!

        Meaning wise the translation is correct.
 If you need a word to word literal translation,

        Hey, Great!
 You finally got listed as an Expert, drkpp!
 
 I've been hoping and working on that for some time, now...
 
 Are you a male or female?  I ask, because I would like to welcome you in the Experts forum topic area.
 
 Thanks!

        I have a similar question.
 I want the phrase 'radiance within' translated into sanskrit. I've found a few loose translations, mainly प्रत्यग्धामन् (pratyagdhaaman.) Does this look accurate to you? I want to confirm before I get a tattoo!
