    Need Help again with Macedonian writing

    Hi

    Does anyone know how to write Kuchkonveny the name of my village in Macedonian (Not sure if that is the correct way to spell it in English.) I would appreciate it in the old Macedonian writing and the current Macedonian writing if possible. Sorry to be a pain but it is for a tattoo.

    Thanks

    Кучконвени, That is in the current Macedonian writing but as for the Old Macedonian (Old Church Slavonic) writing i don't think it can be typed down. Here is a website that should help you out: http://www.omniglot.com/writing/ocslavonic.htm

        Is that the actual name of your selo?
        Where is it located?

          The Hellenized name of Kuckoveni is Perasma(Περάσματος), florina prefecture.

            The correct spelling is Кучковени (without the н)
            According to Lithoxoou it's original spelling in late 1400s was Кучковјани
            It is rarely spelled as Кучкоени in some sources.

              I used your spelling and replaced it with Macedonian letters. I have never heard of the village before so wasn't sure of the correct way of spelling it.

                  I can't hand-write or type Cyrillic at all. Only copy-paste.
                  I could see your names (in Latin or Cyrillic) were wrong, because Google Search produced 0 results.

                            I dont mean to be critical, nor is it any of my business, but why would you consider putting a mark on yourself/getting a tattoo, which is esentially for life, when you cannot understand/read what it means?

                            I cannot understand why people would do that, this extends to people who get Chinese characters and 'words of wisdom' etc. tattooed on them, Why? especially when they would have no idea what the tattoo actually means.

                              I guess it's easier than printing it on his brain cells, uhh... I mean learning the script and language.
