Languages written in a particular way may have nothing else at all in common.

Is it better to get an engraved watch in store or online?
I would personally have this done in store, that way you can take samples of the writing style you would like. This means as well as getting all of the spelling and punctuation perfect, and as well as being able to collect the item there and then so you don't have to wait on delivery, you have the added benefit of being able to change the words to suit at the last minute. This means if inspiration strikes then you have exactly what you want engraved to last forever.
