I am trying to find out how to say two things in Russian. I am not sure the proper
phrasing. The first is 'No regret' or 'Regret not'. The second is very similar, 'No
fear', 'Be not afraid' or 'Fear not'

Is there a particular way these concepts would be phrased in Russian using the Cyrillic
alphabet?

Thanks

No regret - без сожаления.

Have no fear - не бойся; no fear - страху нет.

What do you need this for? Context always helps.

Thank you. They are for a tattoo, or rather, two tattoos.

My translations would look silly in tattoo form, at least to Russians.

That was my concern. I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to succinctly convey the
two concepts in Russian. I appreciate the help.

Thank you for voicing your judgement. I am doing research for my husband who is a tattoo
artist and we thought we would try out this site as an aid to his clients. I'm glad to
know that the community here is not supportive to people using this forum for research
purposes. We won't bother you again.

TreeFrg987,

It's fine for you to ask questions. I hope you don't feel unwelcomed due to a couple of disrespectful posts (now deleted).
