Harsh
hā shí
哈什 is the name Harsh in Chinese (Mandarin).
Harsh
haashu
ハーシュ is the name Harsh in Japanese Katakana.
Note: Because this title is entirely Japanese Katakana, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.
You must endure a harsh winter to appreciate the warmth of springtime
You must know hardship to appreciate happiness
bù jīng dōng hán bù zhī chūn nuǎn
This literally translates as: Without having experienced the cold of winter, one cannot appreciate the warmth of spring.
Figuratively, this means: One cannot truly appreciate happiness without having gone through hardship.
There are many contrasts in life. One simply cannot fully know what joy is without having experienced misery, difficulty, and pain. How could you explain “light” if you did not have “darkness” to compare it to?
Embrace hardship, as it makes the good times seem even better.
Fierce
ara ara shii / ararashi
This Japanese word means fierce.
This can also be translated as rough, wild, rude, harsh, gruff, or violent, depending on context.
Note: Because this selection contains some special Japanese Hiragana characters, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.
