abcdefg Posted November 15, 2017 at 01:11 AM Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 at 01:11 AM Bought a new double-walled 双层 tea mug recently. Having trouble making sense out of the inscription. Pretty sure the first two characters are 天道 and the last one is 勤，but am stuck on the third one, which hopefully gives the inscription some meaning that is relevant to drinking tea. One wild guess was 醆, but I'm not sure it fits, unless it's part of a quote. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abcdefg Posted November 15, 2017 at 02:59 AM Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 at 02:59 AM Terrific, @imron -- Many thanks! That's a good idiom. Especially for drinking tea while studying or engaging in other scholarly pursuits. I will use a different mug if just watching a soccer match on TV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley Posted November 15, 2017 at 11:19 AM Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 at 11:19 AM Ah, some would consider a soccer match just as lofty an ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
