Thai translation check for a tattoo — does this sound natural?
Hi! I’m considering getting a tattoo in Thai and I really want to make sure the wording is completely correct and natural before I do anything permanent.
The sentence is:
ทุกวันฉันเข้าใกล้คนที่ฉันอยากเป็นมากขึ้น
What I want it to mean is:
“Every day I get closer to becoming the person I want to be.”
I’m specifically looking for someone who is a native Thai speaker who can tell me:
Does the Thai sentence actually mean what I intend it to mean?
Does it sound natural to a Thai speaker, or does it sound translated/awkward?
Would you phrase it differently if it were a tattoo?
Does it have any unintended, strange, negative, or funny meaning?
This is going to be a permanent tattoo, so I would really appreciate a native speaker’s opinion rather than relying on Google Translate.
