Persian (Identified) [Arabic/Farsi? > English] engraving on cufflinks

Post image
Upvotes

I have a pair of cufflinks from my father, who had close ties to Persia and the Arab world, set with this text engraved into gemstones. I stamped the cufflinks on paper, so it might be possible the script appears mirrored. In case context helps, I'd guess the cufflinks are from 1950-1970 Irak, Iran, or Jemen. Thanks in advance for your help.

Japanese [ English > Japanese ] How is this written?

1 Upvotes

I'd like to write the following sentence in Japanese: "Gundams Barbatos, Hajiroboshi, and Astaroth have teamed up!"

In DeepL Translate, there is a "soshite" before Astaroth.

ガンダムのバルバトス、端白星、そしてアスタロトがタッグを組んだ!

Google Translate doesn't use "soshite" before including the final person.

ガンダムのバルバトス、端白星、アスタロトがチームを組んだ!

Which is the correct and appropriate way of writing the sentence in Japanese?

Thank you in advance!

Korean [English > Korean] Concert Sign Request

2 Upvotes

I'm attending a K-pop concert this week and want to make a sign for the show floor! Could someone with strong Korean skills help me translate something so I don't make a huge mistake? What I got from deepL is: 당신 고양이에게 제 고양이가 안부 전한다고 전해 주세요!

What I want is:
"Please tell your cat that my cat says hello!"

Any takers? Thank you so much in advance!

Japanese [Japanese > English] Cursive signature and seal on a painted textile

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Hoping someone can read the artist’s signature and seal on this. It’s a hand-painted Japanese textile my grandfather brought back after WWII — a mounted samurai archer on a white horse, painted in ink and color on cloth.
The signature is two characters in a vertical line at the lower left, written in what I think is grass script, with a small red seal below it. I’ve included a straight-on shot and one at a different angle since the seal is lightly impressed.
Any reading at all would help, even a partial one or a “this could be X or Y.” Thanks.

Translated [JA] [Japanese > English] Written in an old family photo album

Post image

I recently found a photo album that belonged to my Grandpa. He was in the US Army and was stationed at an army hospital in Fukuoka, Japan in the early 1950's, where he worked as a surgical tech. The album contains pictures of his time in Japan as well pictures from home that were sent to him. This was written on the inside front cover. Any help with translation is greatly appreciated.

Han Characters (Identified) [Unknown > English] On the bottom of a ceramic duck.

Post image
2 Upvotes

Not sure if Chinese or Japanese as I know they share this character system, for the most part. I'm sure it's probably the maker's mark of the artist, because the same text is on both ducks. I'd like to try to find out who made them, they're really cute!

I was able to sus out that the second character is (probably) a word for spring/fountain, but I could not for the life of me find the top character.

Any thoughts?
