Example of Translation

 

The carving on the stone says "員賞"

圓 rounded, full, all-embracing as in 圓滿

賞 appreciation as in 欣赏, 鉴赏, 感激, 升值, 体味, 赏识


 

Together the phrase 員賞 does not make much sense. It could be a name seal if it is square. However, it is a round or oval shape,

which makes me think that it must have a different meaning.

Now let me try to unlock the secret in this seal: The first character should read "圓" to take the round border into account.

http://chineseetymology.org/CharacterEtymology.aspx?submitButton1=Etymology&characterInput=%E5%9C%93

Therefore the phrase should read 圓賞

The side inscription is

丙午清和月于生作.


 

丙午: The Ping horse year in the 60 year cycle. The last Ping-wu is 1966).

清和月: The fourth month in Chinese lunar calendar.

于生: the artist name Yu Sheng.

作: Made.
