Lettering tattoos on the hand and their meaning
That is why it is recommended to place inscription tattoos in certain places, depending on the size. The most common place for applying such a tattoo is the inscription on the hand and its meaning. There is nothing strange about this, because hands are least susceptible to age-related changes.
Tattoo inscriptions on the hand - every detail matters
When planning to apply a design to your hand, you should remember some mandatory conditions. These include:
- phrase length;
- its meaning;
- translation of words (if it is a foreign phrase);
- font;
- language.
It is problematic to apply too long a saying on your hand. In such cases, you will have to sacrifice size and make the drawing smaller. If this does not bother you, then feel free to post long philosophical sayings of the sages.
In cases where compactness is important to you, a minimal number of words will look very harmonious on your wrist or forearm. One word tattoos on the wrist look great. In such cases, the main highlight of the design is the font.
Hand tattoos in the form of an inscription have become very popular among both boys and girls. Lettering tattoos are fundamentally different from all other types of tattoos. Such images carry a specific meaning and ideology that is understandable to everyone; at least, a person has suggestive thoughts about the meaning of the tattoo. Body art with quotes can express love for one’s neighbor, friendship, trials experienced, attachment to something, etc. A lettering tattoo can be made on any part of the body, but the most popular place for quotes is the hand. The size of the tattoo is also determined by the preference of the person. It can be just one word or phrase. You can apply an entire excerpt from your favorite work or statement to your body.
Since English has become a generally recognized international language of communication throughout the world, inscriptions in English are more popular among young people. In addition, you can convey “your message” to the world in Latin. It is most often chosen for philosophical quotes.
