Tattoo Help Greek/Cypriot

Postby henda1988 » Sun Feb 24, 2013 12:09 am

Hi there,
My partner was born in Cyprus, but the family moved away not long after she was born to the UK. I was just wondering if someone could give me the correct greek/cypriot writing for " Made In Cyprus " for a tattoo please. It would be much appreciated.

Tricky one...

Probably ... Φτιαγμένο στην Κύπρο

or if you want something shorter... Από την Κύπρο ... means From Cyprus


Anyone else with a view...???

...nice try Ocean, too long.

ghinome, some word with it, my thoughts...

need short, a slang unique to Cyprus, something to do with birth; something nice for a tattoo...

...where is Lordo when you need him!
