danqi Posted May 6, 2005 at 07:41 PM Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 at 07:41 PM A friend of mine has "迪夫" tattoed onto his arm. I would translate it with "enlightened man" or something like that, but I wonder if there is more to it. Is it maybe a famous phrase or a reference to something else?

confucius Posted May 6, 2005 at 11:02 PM Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 at 11:02 PM It's an attempt to translate a German name into Chinese. "Enlightened Man" is quite a stretch as the tattoo will appear as nonsense to Chinese people, who are likely the only folks in Europe who can read it.
