Tattoo Symbol For Sister



Tattoo Symbol For Sister...

The Tibetans have a lovely tradition of calling everyone, even complete strangers like members of the family. If you speak to an older man you can call him 'father' or 'grandfather'. If you meet an older woman, you can call her 'mother' or 'grandmother, but be careful which one you use!

A guy near your age you can address as 'brother' or a girl/woman as 'sister'. In the Tibetan language you can say 'acha'. The translation is written below...
