    subject: tattoo mystery 

    Hello: 

    My name is Bill and I am writing to you from Florida. 

    Recently, I've met a lady that has many tattoos. I asked her about one of them, and she embarrassingly admitted to me that having gotten it quite a long time ago (being her first one), she does not remember what it says. It is apparently a phrase of some sort written in kanji. 

    I immediately recognized the first symbol as "tao", or "do" (the way/path/road), but the others are unfamiliar to me. Clearly, with So many kanji in the world, it is daunting to try to find them all. I've attached a photo of the mystery tattoo if you could be so kind as to help in translating it. 

    Thank you very much, and I hope your day finds you well, 


    Bill

    subject: Fast and Foolish?

    Hi Tian, 

    My brother recently got a tattoo that he believe translates to "fast and furious." 

    Is this the case at all?

    Thank you!
    Yes, it does say "fast" and "foolish".
