Default Chinese symbols

Hey peoples,

I am here in need of a bit of confirmation, I’m sure I’m not the first person looking to get a Chinese symbol tattooed somewhere and I have designed most of the tattoo myself but am just putting the finishing touches on and wanted to get confirmation on two separate symbols, without saying what I have been led to believe they mean, can anyone confirm what they know these two attached symbols to represent?


Much Appreciated,
Trogdor

Awesome, that's what I was hoping to hear, I appreciate the help Kakero

And I do appreciate the comment Variol, but this is my way of remembering and thanking a friend that changed my life but passed away this year

Since very, very few* people can actually read those, it doesn't really matter what they say. It could say something to the tune of "fried banana with ice cream $1.30" and none would be the wiser! You are not living up to the full potential of scribing words in a foreign language to your skin. The whole point of using a foreign language is that no-one knows what it means.

*Well, okay, there are about 1.3 billion people living in China, but unless you are planning to travel there you will never meet but a few of them, so they don't count.
