Meanings of elements

MOUTHS, ORIFICES IN TENSION BIRD
…or: STARTLE BIRD

「Outspoken, startle, accuse」「bird」as an OSPREY, FISH HAWK raptor that shrieks and screams in an accusing and extreme manner (outspoken) when startled. A predator that also「startles」its prey by diving from the sky and grabbing fish with its talons. Osprey can appear to hover over water searching for prey, adding to the use of the element「in high tension for a long time horizontally.」Note that the U.S. military uses an aircraft named the V-22 Osprey, which can hover, take-off, and land as does a helicopter, and also fly fast as does an airplane, imitating the innate physical capabilities of the actual bird with the same name. Also, not to mention much here of the bird's ability to crash straight down from a great height into water feet first in order to grab its prey, something that is neither convenient nor desirable for the pilot and crew of a V-22…yet, it does happen:「noisy, rowdy, accuse, sue」with「deficient」and「bird.」

Always keep in mind that these glyphs most likely were originally designed by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that), representing Chinese society many thousands of years ago, but intended NOT as a written or spoken language when created. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system! Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is, and often with multiple correct answers to each riddle, the same as is true today. Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? But, have there been necessary rewrites and altered explanations of the original elemental meanings over the centuries?

No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how seemingly bad our human existence is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or could they have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any lexicon. This site explains multiple meanings of glyphs ignored or censored by other sources, generally as being too embarrassing to admit today.
