So my best friend's birthday is next month, and since he gave me a calligraphy set for my last birthday and also suffers from pretty bad cluster headache attacks, i want to write "Headache begone" in Kanji as some kind of banishment seal. I need the right Kanji letters to do that.

I googled and found this:

Headache: http://www.eudict.com/?word=headache&go=Search&lang=engjpk

To disappear, to be gone: http://www.eudict.com/?lang=engjpk&word=to disappear, to be gone

Sadly my PC can't display the Kanji signs, and the guy i usually ask for PC help is said best friend.

So if anyone really knows about japanese and would help me with the right Kanji letters (especially in the context of what i mean to say) or help with the display issues it would be greatly appreciated.
 
If you are on windows, go to the "regional and languages" setting in the control panel, then select the "languages" tab and click the box for "Install files for east asian languages" which will prompt you for a windows install disc and probably require a reboot.

Alternatively(I'm not completely sure these links will work, but I'll try) some stroke order displays which should be useful in the calligraphy aspect and also bypass the foreign character requirement(since they are animated pictures).

First one: http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?161604_Ƭ "head" pronounced "zu" in this case. Normally "atama"

Then: http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?163285_%C4%CB "pain" pronounced "tsuu". Also commonly "ita" in "itami" or "itamu"(The latter meaning to feel pain/be painful)
 
Thanks, ok then i have to search for my windows XP CD...

Any help from people who know japanese/kanji still appreciated.

EDIT: Thanks! You are my hero ^^
Now all i need is "begone" and i'm fine.
 
Well continuing on what I was doing in my post above, the "to vanish" part is likely not going to be pretty cause its a verb and its gonna want conjugation. If you want it to look nice I'd go with this one from the page you linked:

http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?160443_%BE%C3 "extinguish/cancel" pronounced "shou"

and

http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?163511_%BC%BA "loss" pronounced "shitsu"

together these two do seem to mean vanish/disappear, but I cant vouch that it will sound perfectly right(and your friend might not be able to read it without a dictionary unless they're very well versed). On the plus side it's a nominal verb, which looks good in a situation like this.
 
Thanks a lot that's great!
I think it's going to rock!

EDIT: Er how do i "format" the kanjis?

"zu+tsuu"

"shou+shitsu"

Or

"zu"

"tsuu"

"shou"

"shitsu"
