Karl Roy’s Kapatid Baybayin tattoo

May 19, 2008 - 2,569 views

One of Philippine rock’s icons shows off his Kapatid Baybayin tattoo. Translation is KA-PA-TI-D. Notice the kudit above the “TA” character and the cancellation kudlit under “DA”. Thanks to James for sending this in.

Filipino Sun and Stars tattoo

May 3, 2008 - 6,792 views

Filipino Sun and Stars tattoo may be common but they look good. Especially in all black. I like the placement. It goes well with his Baybayin tattoo.

For those that don’t know the meaning of the Philippine sun and stars, here it is:

The 8 rays represent the “First” 8 provinces that rebelled against Spain. They were Batangas, Bulacan, Cavite, Laguna, Manila, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, and Tarlac. Although, there probably should be a 9th ray for the Moro mutiny at Calaganan. Why leave our Muslim brothers out? The 3 stars represent Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.

A design for Mr. Caguiat. Old school Baybayin translation is KA-GU-I-A. Want one like this? Check out the Baybayin design services.

To show respect and love to my blood line. as they say “blood is thicker than water.” and translating it to the old ways of writing of our ancestors to make it more deeper and show the love for my culture.

Came across this photo while surfing Multiply. The Baybayin characters inked are GA-A-MA-E-SA. Notice the use of the cancellation kudlit for the GA-MA-SA characters. That would translate the tattoo as G-A-M-E-S. If he wanted GAMES literally, I would’ve translated it as GA-ME-S. It’s unnecessary to use the cancellation kudlit for GA and MA since the following characters are vowels. Anyway, only the one inked knows what they mean.
