Can Tattoo Artists Spell? An Inked Spelling Bee | Tattoo Artists React
Have you ever been admiring a beautiful script tattoo and thought, "Wait, something is off about this?" You try to see if it's the linework, maybe a rough heal and then it hits you over the head like a ton of bricks-there's a spelling mistake. We showed our panel of tattoo artists a ton of different script tattoos to see if they could catch any possible misspellings on the spot. Well come to the first annual Inked Spelling Bee.
Welcome to Season 17 of Tattoo Artists React!
We’re baaaaaack! We have a brand new cast and a whole new batch of questions for our panel of tattoo artists. This time around we’re going to be tackling all of the tough subjects-what should a tattooer never do, what kind of tattoo is a dealbreaker to spot on a first date and more. We even gave everybody a spelling test. Yeah, you heard me, a spelling test. Strap yourselves in, it’s going to be a wild season!

The were focused on the cursive Q so much they didn’t notice the missing T in quanTity lol
That's what I was thinking the whole time!
thats what i was thinking too!! i think ppl assume cursive Qs are Ls or smth? Still shoulda chose a more legible cursive font that had the Q looking like a print Q tho imo lol
That one hurt my brain
That’s not a cursive Q that is an L
Lol to be fair not many people learn cursive in school. My little brother couldn't even sign his own name because his school didn't teach them cursive lolol
Lynn cracks me up, man! "I got the same tattoo" "Is it spelled correctly?" "I don't know. Is it?" 🤣
"fun" fact about the ending, alexander graham bell was a eugenicist who absolutely hated Deaf people and wanted them erased.
Bell's... Complicated. This is a fine reading of his history, not saying otherwise, but it can also be argued that he (through the lens of his day) largely wanted to help the Deaf. He had a Deaf wife, and this influenced his work. However, again, calling him a eugenicist is absolutely accurate
Also ironic is the fact that they were also talking about thomas Edison, who was actually Deaf
@@veggie9755 Did we turn this into a history channel? Oh man, I'd love that. The thing I always bristle at is how we always end up crediting the person who was savvy enough to race in and get a patent, even if they didn't do the critical work of actually inventing anything. Also, it's really fun to say "Alexander Graham Fucker."
@@inked right? It’s happened so many times, wish we could credit the actual inventor but history loves to play favorites.
@@whitetigergurl12 yeah in that time the idea was similar to mercy killing according to its proponents. both were then and are now unconscionable but popular opinion was a lot more ableist. i don't know about you but i wouldn't want to be in the room as someone who wanted people like me (whichever oppression that may be) to not exist, and i certainly wouldn't marry them.
The “Quality” was actually correct. I was taught that version of the cursive Q at elementary school actually. Definitely not commonly used tho.
It is actually incorrect. An uppercase Q in cursive looks like a 2. It has an open top part (not looping in on itself like in the tattoo) and a loop on the bottom. The way it's written in the tattoo looks like a cursive L with a backwards top loop. Also, Quantity was spelled incorrectly so that's a problem as well.
In my school that was L
@@campbellsoup93their are two versions of Q
"Tuality is in multiple dimentions and thats over quality yeah i will take that for sure cose u take more out of the two dimentions than u would take out of any quality in a single... for sure so i would take duality or tuality, but its spelled wrong" Can someone get that guy a hug ?
Lmao, yeah and maybe a book

Once again, the Inked video editors were the stars of the video
8:57 you can see Jason's tatoo not pixelated.
Is it a snail!? 🐌
OH man. It's just for a split second... and it is glorious. But shhhhhhh, don't tell the censors!
😂
That's fockin funny
What does it say or what is it? I can't see 💀
Hahahah as a South African I’d say you’re kinda right, just that it’d be spelled “Fok” as its Afrikaans 🤣🤣
man that duality over quanity is so good! reminds me of the ''plan ahea'' knuckle tattoo
I love how no one points out Quality is spelled correctly because it’s a cursive Q
That's not the only way to write a cursive Q, and it is very different than the way I was taught to write a Q but is almost exactly the same as the way I was taught to write an L. The only difference is the direction of the top loop.
As a South African I am very amused that they know how we swear. Also not surprised that they know cause if there's one thing a South African will teach you to say, it's local swear words (and then maybe "Ons gaan nou braai!"/We're gonna BBQ now) I do want to point out we spell the F word without the "C" though. But the "O" is spot on.
I think it's pretty much the same with any new language you are learning, people want to teach you the swear words first.
So many dyslexic artists... I wonder if there is a correlation between dyslexia and visual art/drawing skills?
I was wondering the same. Always hearing them talk about their dyslexia.
I have a problem typing out sentences sometimes & Im an artist & sometimes I confuse letters & numbers
"Dyslexics struggle with reading, writing and spelling but they often excel in other areas"
there were a ton of dyslexic kids in my college design program (enough that we talked about this ourselves) so even if there isn't an official study on it...I think there probably is something there
I mean, if you're not good with words, why not channel your energy into something (generally) without them?
Hahahahahahaha the editing gets me every time!! 😆
The first 20 seconds has me in tears😭😭😭🤣🤌🤣
7:58 that dude is off the shits on a regular basis and it shows 💀😂
loved the rant at the end! lmao
Loved the discussion at the end, totally truth
I like how no one mentioned that Quan(t)ity is spelled incorrect as well hahaha
the 2uality over Quanity : these sort of "2" is actually a capital Q in cursive, the more you know
Sadly, Quantity is the correct spelling so it's still incorrect
@@lexvt3551 yup, that is still true
the sanskrit tattoo reads as 'balwat' and does mean strength well more like strong strength is better translated to 'bal' (so first half of the tattoo) or 'takat' point is its not just a name, it still means strength
I need more galen bryce tattoo in my life and this series
That beginning though 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I hope they didn't honestly expect us to read that 3rd one cause my head started spinning after about 2 seconds of trying and I gave up.
"Life is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel"
I love the shirt that Jason is wearing, I really want one like that.
I am kind of sad Pony isn't in this one as a meme EDIT: JK! he is and my day has been made. Thank you Editor San!
He is in the 'shirty club' bit! Wouldn't be the same without him!
@@camillastacey4674 oh you are right??!! i am so blind. now my day has been made!
Tbh the history lesson at the end was my fave bit lol
The dude with the chest piece probably showed up with an inspirationnal quote he found on facebook and he said: "Make this look good on my ENTIRE chest" samtaylor: "ayt bet"
It's well done but confusing AF and I think it's shit
I feel like this video will make people double check all their tattoos for spelling errors.
8:58 I’ve been wondering what they keep blurring out on his leg 😂
Oh, its really cool video and the idea is cool
I’ve got one script/writing/lettering whatever you wanna call it and I double triple checked the spelling and my artist checked the spelling and then rechecked it when he was doing the stencilling and we got it right but 100% made sure we did. The word is Namaste so it’s not even common or easy to someone who’s never spelled that before
Not a single person noticed that quantity was spelled wrong because that Q was horrendous lol
I have an A7X tattoo with one of my favorite songs “seize the day” well my tattoo artist at the time spelled it Sieze. We both didn’t notice. After I was looking at it and thought this doesn’t look right. People at work were joking with me that it was spelled wrong. I looked it up and yup it was spelled wrong lol called the shop and let him know. Thankfully it was font he couldn’t easily fix lol he was so upset haha
When ever I write strength it always ends up that way lol 😂 “Strenght”
3:54 bad facebook t shirt on skin
I think there's a possibility that the "quantity" tattoo is actually done right. Duality / Quanity 11:11. It could be a dual universe/spiritual reference especially with the 11:11
Except that "quantity" wasn't spelt right >
4:08 that’s as clear as I can make it 🤣
That is the correct capital Q in cursive… “Quantity” however is missing a “t” 🤣🤦🏻♂️
Came across Tobe Drew's Tattoo Work, he is from Ohio. He did some good stuff. Someone had him do a cover up, some other artist misspelled a something put on a shoulder.
1:57 made me laugh so hard cause I thought of the Nicki meme too
What's up KZhead comments. Then = sequence of time. I this then I did that. Than = comparison. This is better than that.
I love typography!!&!
QuanTITY! lol they forgot the “T” and no one caught it.
I was also screaming that in my head!
look at the guy in the beginning 🤣
The Thomas Edison talk at the end oh my god 🤣
I have worked with a couple of artists that I wondered if they could read.
I prefer freehand artwork but for text I would insist on stencils. Get a dictionary for your shop. Triple/Quadruple/Quintuple check your work before you embed ink.
I totally agree, a quick spell check goes along way.
I have never been this early to any video. Yay me 😆
My brother used to say "Fock you or focker" because he thought he wouldn't get in trouble....lol
In South Africa we say "vok jou" 😅
I had strength spelled wrong on me.. swore never to get words tattooed on me again
As a south african i denounce such misspelling practices😂
I need my first Tattoo!!!
“Quanity” might be intentional lool
I’m great at spelling I could probably make bank off lettering tattoos
At least my artist can spell, he's like a calygraphy major or something
My daughter got a tattoo last week that says “just one more”, but for whatever reason the artist connected the “o” to the “r” from the bottom, so it looks more like an “a” than an “o”. She is not happy.
"just one mare"... maybe she can tell people she's really into horses?
lul
7:40 when you dont know how to heal a tattoo right😂
I actually thing it was supposed to say Loyalty over Quantity
My first tattoo was script of Isaiah 41:10 and the artist wrote "richeous" instead of "righteous" on the stencil. Thankfully for my helicopter momma, she caught that shit in half a second. Probably won't ever get another word tattooed on me after that experience
Do Tattoo Artists react to Scarification
Am I wrong? I thought it was quantity it’s missing a “t” right?
5:42 "Isn't it *than* ?" Oh, honey
You guys should look into a lot of rock bands/their singers/band members! Black Veil Brides, In This Moment, Halestorm, Ice Nine Kills, New Years Day, etc!
I miss Nora and her crazy stories haha
if natanael cano picked up a tat machine instead of a guitar 🤣🤣
Angel kills me everytime lol Also, i bet i spelt her name wrong lol
8:57 you see whats tattooed on the leg.
Y’all are scaring me with how many artist missed some of the misspellings! LOL Hoping any artist would GOOGLE or use Grammarly application on your phone or browser!
Let’s just say I’m never getting script because of this video
I love how they brought up South Africa. Like you guys know we exist🤣🙌 Except we spell it fok not fock. Really surprised you know Afrikaans🙌
@monikkavelvet बलवंत does means strong, mighty, powerful, and it also can be person’s name. Only thing is from seeing in video, I think you didn’t put dot on “वं“ other wise it accurate.
yeah she has बलवन्त tattooed on her from what i can see and that also means strong in punjabi/powerful in hindi, right? @3:14
@@giafrancis3483 yes बलवंत/बलवन्त means strong/powerful in Hindi, panjabi and Marathi. I hope 🤞 she sees this comment 😅
FOR ALL!!! @ 6:15, Never be embarrassed to fart when u poo!!! After all.... theres no rain without a lil thunder!
A buddy of mine knows a guy that had a metalca (Metallica) tattoo.
I am deeply in love with Reese….It’s the Cancer in me being a July 3rd bday but it’s there….And no it’s not than darlin………….
I am from South Africa and that's not how we say it, hahahahaha
I feel like 90% of tattoo artists are dyslexic 🤣 Please - I mean it in loving way. It’s just funny how many of them can’t spell.
I mean columbus didnt discover america either yet everyone knows that song and thinks he did
How is strength spelled!!
I have "everyting" tattoed on me.
Seriously where can I find that Lakers jersey ????
Life is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel
The guy with all the face tats has had sessions to get them removed so they are a bit lighter rn
Do you know his name? Id love to see hia tats
Also Thomas Edison may have put a hit out on a famous French inventor who invented film first and who mysteriously went missing with his paperwork and blueprints and was never found.
Pretty odd to see Jason without hat. I couldn't even recognise him for a solid minute. 🤦🏻♂️
Lol, the irony of the Q in quality being shit is insane. Also there's a t missing in quantity.
Could anyone tell me what's one Jason's leg please?!
8:57, if you pause it just at the right time it’s uncensored. It’s a dick.
@@thedestroyasystem that is one long slong
@@roboostelbos9001 yup
I don't get how anyone can misspell a tattoo in a day & age where Google & spellcheck exist
Fuck my first name is Edison. Hahahaha
Luality/Quan*ity
Why is FOCK censored? You can say "fock" all you want, it's not a bad word.
7:19 koala is not spelled right
No one mentioning quantity being misspelled? lmao
1:12 its bri-ish
Did the miss that there's no T in "farted"? They used a D. Oops!
6:30 what’s her name ? @Inked
4:16 what is on his inner right thigh?
25yo and still none!
Luality over quanity - 2 errors and very ironic
Biggest mystery, wtf is tattooed on creepyjason's leg
8:57 thank me later ;)
