Love in Arabic, Natasha: More Arabic Tattoos

Another round of Arabic tattoo translations:

I was just looking on your website and wondered if you could possibly translate these words for me. I have wanted an Arabic tattoo for some time now, but I have been so busy, and also trying to find the correct translation has been proving hard! So I’m here hoping you can help me. My name is Natassja (or Natasha, I just spell it differently) would you be able to translate my name into Arabic? Even if you can only translate the common spelling “Natasha” that would be great!

Also please could you translate love (meaning the love between a couple) and strength and courage (as separate words please).

Natassja (Natasha) in Arabic

Ok, let’s start with your name. I’m glad you provided the pronunciation for your name, because the most important thing for translating names into Arabic is that the sound of the name is preserved. The spelling cannot be preserved and would in fact be misleading – Arabic words are pronounced as they are written.

Natasha in Arabic is ناتاشا, which is the closest phonetically that you can get to the original pronunciation. I also believe that this is the most popular translation of your name.

If you do a Google search for this name in Arabic you will find that there are around 61,000 results for this spelling. The alterative translation نتاشا is found less than 30,000 times.

Here is Natasha in Arabic in 4 different fonts:

Love in Arabic

“Love” in Arabic is حبّ (pronounced Hubb, with the H being strongly aspirated). But, in Arabic abstract concepts are usually prefixed with the article ال (al). So, the best translation is الحبّ (al-Hubb).

There are two different versions of this word below, because one can write it with the shadda sign (the little “w” above the letter on the left) or without it. The function of this sign is to indicate that the letter underneath is doubly pronounced. But, Arabs know this anyways, so it is not really necessary to write it. In the end, it is up to you whether to use the shadda or not.

Below is “love” in Arabic in 4 different fonts:

Version1: Love in Arabic with shadda

Version1: Love in Arabic with shadda

Version2: Love in Arabic tattoo without shadda

Version2: Love in Arabic tattoo without shadda

Strength in Arabic & courage in Arabic

I’ve already translated these two words in a recent blog post. Please see here for the Arabic tattoos of “strength” and “courage”.

  3. Hi,
    can you please tell me how to write the words below in arabic.
    Always remember never forget

    thankyou

  4. Soha, I appreciate your trying to help out, but please be aware that for a tattoo the grammar and spelling has to be accurate. The translation you suggest contains a spelling mistake (تنسي). Also, many readers don’t have proper Arabic language support installed on their PCs, so it might be better to go with my Custom Tattoo Design service that includes the translations in PDF format.

  5. could one of you tell me what ‘heart of the ocean’ and ‘gemma’ translates into in arabic pleaseeeeeeeee!!

  6. I want an arabic tattoo that says love on my finger, which is best because I understand there’s different ways to write it, so I want to make sure I have the correct translation, either love or peace.

  7. Irene, as I stated in my blog post above, it is really a matter of personal choice, whether to include the shadda or not; it does not alter the meaning or the main writing of the letters. The shadda is not a part of the letters themselves.

  8. Hey this is really useful thanks… So the way it is written actually makes sense in all fonts?

    Which one would be the most accurate?

    I like all but the second one but i wouldnt want some one to read it and be like that doesnt mean anything

    Thanks Carman

  11. hi i want to know how you write love and karma in arabic with the shadda. please i have searched and i get different ways

  12. Kathy, take a look at this blog post here, that includes designs for “karma”. I think by “shadda” you mean all the diacritic signs (harakaat or tashkeel). However, these are not necessary for “karma”, as the two alifs already indicate the vowel sounds.
