I Love You (aishiteru)

Scroll to see all 9 Japanese I Love You tattoo designs

Here we offer 9 different hand-brushed Japanese I Love You tattoo designs by Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase. For these I Love You tattoo designs the fonts are different, but the characters and the meaning are the same. So order the style you like - the meaning is the same for each design.

I Love You in Japanese is 愛してる which is read aishiteru. The Japanese phrase "aishiteru" is actually just a verb 愛してる (read aishiteru) which literally means "loving". Notice that both the subject and the object are omitted. Japanese is classified as a "pro-drop" (pronoun drop) language where the pronouns are commonly omitted. Here the "I" and the "You" are self-evident and so omitted. Hence the Japanese do not say "I love you" they actually say "loving" or aishiteru.

This design is perfect by itself or you can personalize it with names from our huge selection of Names in Japanese.
