Does anyone know how to read Chinese? This was my late family member’s tatt and I’d like to add it to my sleeve

I sent it to chat GPT

t. The tattoo in the image contains Chinese characters:

忠 (zhōng) – loyalty, devotion, faithfulness
孝 (xiào) – filial piety, respect and devotion to one’s parents/elders

Together, 忠孝 (zhōngxiào) is a traditional Confucian concept meaning:
• Loyalty and filial piety
• Being a good subject/citizen (loyal to ruler or country) and a good child (respectful to parents).

It’s a value that emphasizes duty to both family and society.

👉 In English, you could translate this tattoo as “Loyalty and Filial Piety” or more simply “Loyal and Respectful to Parents/Elders.”
@DoubleRings Oh my goodness thank you!!!
