No, in Spain this sentence is not usual but the effect it may have on the people is positive, of course.
However I would rather have the sentence in English for your tatoo.
"Vive, ríe, ama" is the best option, although "vivir, reír, amar" is the most common expression (but it is not very common in spanish !! It's always a translation.)
Note: If you tatoo it in chinese watch out because they sometimes put funny stuff like "Grocery Store" or "No parking on Sundays"...
I would say 'vivir, reir y amor' but it sounds strange.
Salud, Dinero y Amor!, the Mexican toast, is the nearest to it. Note that the Mexicans use the word 'amor'. Perhaps yours lacks the 'y'.
Sounds like a tee shirt.
It would make a silly looking and sounding tattoo. Don't do it!
I'm not sure where you are getting your options....You can use just the infinitives: vivir, amar, reír; or you can use the commands...but whom are you commanding? ríete is one form, but then you use vive and ama...which really don't mix all that well (yeah, grammatically, but not stylistically).
I'd say vive, ríe, ama, or vivan, rían amen.
Why is it you want to scar your skin with something you aren't even sure of, and it isn't even something THEY would use?
Hola :)
If you are a fluent spanish speaker, would you (please) be able to tell me whether the spanish translation of "live laugh love" is "Vive ríete ama" or "Vive, reír, ama" or "vivir, amor, reir"?
Which is correct or if the correct way is not listed, which is the right way to say it? With proper use of the spanish alphabet (e.g. using í when needed instead of i)
Do Spanish people know this quote "live, laugh, love" as it is well known in english speaking countries.
I will be going to spain soon and am thinking of getting a tattoo so I would like to be prepared for the tattooist just in case i decide to.
Gracias :)
