Feminine of Валерий: the standard male form 瓦列里 plus the female ending 娅.
Before you tattoo or print Valeria in Chinese
- 瓦列里娅 is the usual transliteration of Valeria: the form Chinese readers recognise as this name. The characters were picked for their sound.
- Character by character: 瓦 (wǎ) = roof tile · 列 (liè) = to line up; row · 里 (lǐ) = inside; li (unit of distance) · 娅 (yà) = character used in female names. Written together, a Chinese reader sees the name Valeria, not a phrase built from those meanings.
- Simplified 瓦列里娅 is read in mainland China and Singapore, traditional 瓦列裡婭 in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Pick the one your readers use and do not mix the two.
- Left to right, or top to bottom when vertical. Never mirror, rotate or reorder the characters: one missing or extra stroke makes a different character.
- Brush and calligraphy fonts change the shape of the strokes. Ask a native reader to check the final artwork before it is inked or printed.
- The tones are tone 3 + tone 4 + tone 3 + tone 4. Hear it above, record yourself and get each tone scored, or check all four tones with the free Mandarin tones test.
