Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
SNOUT, CHEWED and PULLED TO ONE SIDE OUT OF THE NORMAL SHAPE with STICKY FLUIDS
It seems fairly clear that these elements are「sticky fluid」() and「pig's snout, dog's snout」(), with the subject glyph as the clogged, blocked, and plugged condition. See as the condition during treatments, CARVING A WOODY, TO CARVE WOOD. Perhaps PIG SNOT from an ill animal, but that is an assumption. Some sources state this glyph in Chinese means to maintain a DIARY, keep a DAILY RECORD of some details by COPYING the data, while others say it means to CARVE or ETCH, SCRATCH a surface—both make sense when documenting the progression of an illness and related treatments.
 Top elements「pulling to one side, pulling out of the normal shape」with「biting tool, chewing」inserted inside, together with「sticky fluids streaming in all directions.」Considering the given meanings, all indicate the process of reaming the urethra with a bougie while treating a gonorrhea infection by gouging into a male's wood. It would then have been important not only to scratch the inside surfaces, but also to keep a record of the daily flow amounts during the treatment period. It should be no surprise that the color of gonorrhea gleet is often green, or yellowish-green.
 Putting the three possibilities together, perhaps the glyph represents a daily record or count of days of a flow of pig snot, as an indicator of the dates or length of time a specific pig was sick and therefore contagious to other pigs, in order to determine how long to continue keeping the animal quarantined.
 Top element may also be「juxtaposed pig snouts」perhaps to indicate that the illness is contagious and may be transmitted between pigs in a transfer of mucus when one licks or touches another's snout (pigs do that). Meanings of ETCH and CARVE into wood perhaps referring to these tally marks on a barn wall counting the days being RECORDED by illiterate Chinese pig farmers. Note that modern fonts tend to display the lower element of「sticky fluid」more as「water」but traditional fonts use the original element of「sticky fluid.」…「pig snout water」might be just as informative.
 Finally, it should be noted that a bacterial infection within mammalian mucous membranes is often (but not always) green, or greenish in color. Some infections are dull yellow, of course. See …and that「pig snout」is a euphemism for the human male penis.

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: to carve wood
Unihan extended: to carve wood
EDRDG: to carve wood

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. 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! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. 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 bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only 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 dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
