    My son wants the words Grandma and Grandpa engraved in Chinese onto an identity bracelet from them.
    Could someone translate for me please?
    Would this need special equipment?
    Thank you

    Hello, you can go to a translation site on the Internet, just go to www.google.com and search "Chinese English translation" and you will get several. I tried myself and came out with some results, but I'm pretty sure this forum doesn't display Chinese characters... If you do a search on the Internet, your computer will probably need the Chinese characters plugin for your browser or it will just display the characters as question marks. Good luck... anything else, just ask.

    Yes, you need to get a Chinese characters plugin for your browser... if you are using Microsoft IE, you can get it from www.microsoft.com, if you are using Firefox, you can probably find it on www.firefox.com, I had some trouble trying to find these plugins, but my Internet has not been working correctly, so it is quite challenging for me. Let me know if you find anything.

    Plugin for my browser
    :rolleyes: I live in China, so it won't be necessary for me to get a Chinese characters plugin for my browser. I had download a Written Chinese software, using PinYin to write those characters.
