    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!

    Meaning wise the translation is correct.

    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!
