Radical Combination


Meaning

Cup Of Liquid, Counter For Cups

Mnemonic

A tree is not a cup of liquid or a counter for cups. Don’t get them mixed up. The last time you tried making a cup out of a tree to count your throat got filled with splinters when you used it. There wasn't even any liquid in it.

Imagine cutting a tree into a cup of liquid and focus on the pain in your throat when you try to actually use it. Instead you kick the tree and angrily count cups of liquid in your head, because they simply are NOT the same.
