    Sanskrit Translation
    HEY!
    I want to get a tattoo in Sanskrit that says 'watched over' and I got रक्षिता as a result. I was just wondering if that was the right translation.
    So if anyone could answer that for me, that'd be great!
    Thanks so much :)

    I seem to have had some reasonably good success using the following site. Sanskrit Dictionary for Spoken Sanskrit Perhaps that is the site that you have already tried? If it's not, would you please list the site that you tried? Doing so might add another resource for us here, if the information on the site is correct. Thanks!

    I do wish that we had a designated expert here in translating words into Sanskrit. However, every once in awhile, there are a couple of people that show up who really know 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.

    There is also another site that you could try. It would be the following one. Free Online Translations to Sanskrit, Hindi & Marathi for Tattoos, Names & Sentences

    I think that the guy that runs it is the same one that comes around here, now and then, to answer very finely concerning questions like the one that you have.

    There is also another person who has recently joined who really knows his stuff. Hopefully, either of them will come along to respond to your post.

    It is correct if the phrase is addressed to a female.
