As we all know, we communicate through language. In our case, in Spanish. Without him I couldn't be writing this right now. But a set of letters, by itself, cannot express the intention of what is said or written. To do it, there are some small characters that can be reflected on the skin. I'm talking, of course, about punctuation mark tattoos.
Despite having many signs that express different emotions, there are some that are especially significant when it comes to getting a tattoo:
Semicolon
If you like tattoos and, above all, if you follow Tatuantes, chances are you know the meaning of these tattoos… and it has nothing to do with spelling. When we add a semicolon to a sentence, we add a short pause after which we continue with the same topic. That is to say, is the punctuation mark that joins two related ideas.
And, with this meaning, the Semicolon Project. It is a movement in support of people suffering from mental illness, like depression, and have contemplated suicide. The semicolon, in these cases, means: Your life does not end here.
Ellipsis
Among its functions, the ellipsis are used to replace an idea that is supposed to be obvious. Therefore, this simple design it can lead to a mystery.
But these three points, one after the other, are also used in large lists of which only a few examples are to be mentioned. An ellipsis indicates that there is more than what is mentioned. Hence, ellipsis tattoos They can also symbolize that there is something in your life that is not over yet (And, of course, that you are not going to give up).
Question marks
I think there is no need to clarify the use of question marks, right? Well, as it happens in spelling, question marks on tattoos indicate something that is not known. And, based on this premise, it can mean anything: parts of the world that you do not know, undiscovered mysteries, indecipherable ideas ...
The most common is to observe the question mark that we use to close the questions. Why? It's simple: not everyone uses the opening question mark. So, if you want to make your tattoo universal, you already know which one to choose. Or why not, if you're proud of our spelling, get the two of you tattooed together.
Exclamation marks
And another sign so similar and completely different from the previous one is the exclamation point, used for exclamations (as its name suggests) and, sometimes, to give orders. East It is a symbol that represents strength, emotion, surprise and joy. And the tattoos that carry this punctuation mark symbolize that very thing.
As in the previous case, you have to think about which exclamation point you prefer: the opening, the closing ... or both.
: Y )
The colon can be combined with a parenthesis to create the most cheerful and happy punctuation mark tattoo. Because what results is a smiling face that represents, obviously, the happiness of the person. It is a good way to show that your life is full of good times and good experiences.
& Symbol
Actually, a score tattoo… it isn't. Because scoring does not score. But it seemed to me that it is a beautiful tattoo and that, as it is also related to the language, it had a place in this article. It is the perfect linguistic tattoo for couples, as the conjunction "and" is used to bring two ideas together. On the skin, this symbol can bring two people together.
The best thing about these tattoos is that, thanks to their small size, They are suitable for everyone, even those who are afraid of needles or those who do not want a tattoo to take up a lot of space on the skin. In my opinion, these six are the most symbolic punctuation mark tattoos. But, if you can think of any more, don't forget to leave a comment.
