Can anyone point me in the direction of a good rendering of the Chinese character for 'serenity' online somewhere? It's for embroidery purposes.

Thanks!

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.

宁静 (sorry, that's as big as the font here will go)

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

There is a wonderful website where you can get English phrases translated into Chinese characters. There are also many phrases available for purchase too.

The nice thing about purchasing the already existing phrases is that you'll get Chinese characters in five different styles. They are very beautiful... a mix of more standard looking characters, to dramatic brushed or chisled varations.

Here's the Formosa Chinese Character Clip Art url:

To see an example of the five lettering styles, below is a link to one of my "Never Give Up" t-shirts. This was a phrase I had translated a few years ago, and I was so happy with the way all the lettering looked I used all of them!

Also it seemed that repeating "never give up" five times kinda went well with what it was saying... heh...

Hope this info helps.

P.S.

You may find that there are variations on the characters used for the word "serenity". The Formosa website might use characters which are not exactly like the movie. You can also write and ask for special requests too.

Don't want to hijack this thread, but does anybody know the proper way it is supposed to be written?

I have seen it written where the smaller of the two symbols is both on the top and the bottom. The one on Serenity is on the top, and I have the same picture from Bed, Bath and Beyond that Tristan has, and it is written on the bottom.

Just curious.
