Title: Chinese Letters
Post by: Merlin on April 27, 2010, 05:42:12 am

Hi a wee request, does any one know how to write the text "Double Shotz Cafe" in Chinese, and if yes can it be patterned for the scroll saw.

I have done a couple of Chinese dragons and wish to add the above text but in Chinese. (or as near as possible).

Thank you Merlin

Merlin have you tried babblefish?  Perhaps a google for chinese translation.

Here is what I found.  In Simplified (that is what they called it)

双shotz咖啡馆  obviously no word in chines for shotz...<wink>

here it is in traditional

雙重shotz咖啡館

Thanks for that Dunk ya I looked up Kanji chinese and got something similar, but it's all to complicated for the piece I'm working on.
I thought it was going to be a few strokes for each word, bugger was I wrong, oh well back to the drawing board.
