Hi again,

Remember this:


Maria do Ceu Pereira Pinto Ramalho = [Here "ceu" in prunounced as "ko", not as "so", right?]
ماريا دو كو پيريرا پينتو راماليو

This is my question:

How do you say "Céu" ?


Céu in Portuguese it's Sky in English.



The sound of the words is like this :



C = ReCeive
E = Education
U = StUden

Like Seoul (capital of South Korea) without the L



PS – This is to make a tattoo do you have different caracters ???

Hi ricardo,

When you make Maria into ماريا, you don't really translate the name.
You actually only transliterate : you put the sounds into a different alphabet, here the Arabic one.
When you want Céu in Arabic, you could not really put the 'e' as in educate into that script, as Arab does not have that sound.
You would have to make it سيو, which would (could) be pronounced like the english "seeyou"
Céu = Heaven = سماء
= more or less pronounced 'samaa'

Cheers,

Jazz

Hello again Ricardo.

I can see better here than in the mail. Well listen, I took that for a long family name and just transliterated it in Arabic letters. If "ceu" and also maybe "pereira" mean other things than a simple name, then pelase translate that into English and make it clear to us.
