How do you write wisdom in Chinese calligraphy?
Wisdom is 智慧 (zhìhuì). Wisdom and insight. 智 alone, knowledge, is also written on its own.
Which script should I choose for 智慧?
Regular script (楷书) is the one every Chinese reader can read, so it suits a tattoo, a gift or a sign. Running script (行书) looks handwritten and still reads easily. Cursive (草书) is the most beautiful and the hardest to read.
Is this real calligraphy?
These are brush fonts, made from a calligrapher’s writing, so every copy of a character looks the same. A calligrapher’s own hand changes each stroke with the brush and the ink. For something to keep, such as a tattoo, have a calligrapher write it.
