Ah yea the joys of getting a tattoo written in a foreign language that you don’t actually understand so you can’t verify if it’s correct.

Also the mark of an idiot.

It could be worse, I was expecting her tatoo to translate “rancid fart”.

LOL! When my oldest son was stationed in Okinawa he got a Japanese character tattoo. I asked him how did he know that it didn't say “ I suck “ or something worse. He was not amused.
