Questions about Intan in Japanese
How do you write Intan in Japanese?
Intan is written インタン in katakana. Katakana is the script Japanese people use for foreign names, so this is how Intan would appear on a Japanese ID card, a café cup or a name tag.
What are the best kanji for Intan?
Our top pick is 音楽 (Inta). 音 means “sound” and 楽 means “joy”. Other good options are 音端 (Intan) and 音探 (Intan).
Is 音楽 a real Japanese name?
Partly. The characters 音楽 appear in Japanese names, but with the reading Ongaku and Kanade rather than Inta. As a spelling of Intan, it is a creative kanji choice (ateji): Japanese readers will see the meaning of each character.
How many strokes is 音楽?
音楽 has 22 strokes in total (音: 9, 楽: 13). It takes some practice to write neatly, so look up the stroke order before trying it with a brush.
Can I use 音楽 as a tattoo?
Each character in 音楽 has a positive meaning, so it is a reasonable choice. Keep in mind that Japanese people will read it as the meaning of the characters, not instantly as “Intan”. If you want your name to be recognized, katakana (インタン) is clearer. Either way, ask a native speaker to check the final design.
