Japanese Tattoos : Date Translation for Romer Ortuno

August (8th month) : 八月

11 (11th day) : 十一日 or 壱拾壱日

2005 (year 2005) : 二千五年 or 弐阡伍年

In Japanese, the date is written in a different order than the occidental dates, as follows: year, month, day. Therefore August 11th 2005 becomes 2005 August 11th (or 2005.8.11).

In translation, this is usually written 2005年 8月 11日

and the full Japanese version is

二千五年 八月 十一日 or 弐阡伍年 八 月 壱拾壱日
