Italian Tattoos - Looking For Italian Tattoo Designs? Articles By Brandon Walker


Italian tattoo designs are an amazing tattoo and in my opinion one of the best types of foreign language tattoos that you can get.

Getting a tattoo in another language has always been a popular choice by tattoo enthusiasts as when people first lay eyes on the tattoo they do not know the meaning behind it, or what it means when translated into English. This makes Italian tattoos very meaningful.

Here are three aspects to consider before getting inked.

#1 What do you want your Italian tattoo to say?
Make sure before you go to your local tattooist to get inked that you carry out research into the words or phrases you want translated from English to Italian. Some meaningful words or phrases in the English language may mean absolutely nothing when translated into Italian. As a result I would advise you to consult with a fluent speaking Italian who has a good understanding of both English and Italian as he/she will be able to give you correct advice on the words you want translated.

#2 Decide where on your body you want the design
Do you want your Italian tattoo on your ankle, lower back area or on the back of your neck? It is important to consider where you want your design before deciding on what you want it to say. This is because small phrases of words in English when translated to Italian can require more letters, making the tattoo a lot larger than what you might have expected.

For instance a short word in English may require twice the number of letters when translated into Italian which would take up too much space if you were thinking of getting an ankle tattoo design as an example.

#3 Locate your tattoo design
You now have to decide on the type of font, lettering and color of your tattoo design. I have found the best place to look online for tattoos is through internet tattoo galleries, which feature a wide variety of different styles of lettering that you can use for your tattoo design. These galleries often feature thousands of tattoo designs which make finding a stylish Italian tattoo design a lot easier.
