Title Spelling


Why is the title Tatau instead of Tatoo.the usual way of spelling the word?

reply

Well, first of all, the most common spelling is "tattoo".

But either spelling is a bastardization of the original Samoan "tatau".

How are you going to say the usual way of spelling? You mean English way as if English/Kings English is the first and only way you spell/say things.
It really shows your mindset, subconscious elitism regarding how you see yourself and where other cultures fall in line "after" the <i>usual</i> way. Which is.... ding ding ding standard English.
