Hej,

Please go to the link in my previous post or the links pages on the
Henna Page site. If you don't want to do that, you can do an
internet search. You can go to the local and university libraries in
your area and look something up. You could find a person who writes
Chinese and ask him/her. You might want to narrow your search down
to the symbol/word for Dad or Father because one that resembles
either might mean something like "tank desk" or "garbage couch"
(nonsensical).

I am a teacher, grad student and a literacy volunteer (among other
things) and believe it's very important that people know how to find
things for themselves. (I also don't have a lot of free time.) I
don't mind starting people out on the right paths, but it's not my
job to get the information and send it out. If it were, I'd have my
own site and a very profitable business. So check out the link in my
previous post. The site is a wonderful place to begin your search.

Good luck!

Anne, who doesn't mean to sound bitchy and who highly recommends
(sp? it's early for me)going down the bunny hole or checking out
your local and university libraries. Librarians are great and can
help you with almost any problem.

: I was wanting to get a tattoo resembling DAD or FATHER but I'm sure
: of the correct symbol. I was hoping that you could help me and
email
: the symbol to my above email address.
