Meanings of elements

multiple RODS in SPURTING STANCES with NIGHT SOIL
…or: SHAMAN ENTERPRISES, SUB-CLASSIFICATION WITHIN A LARGER WHOLE with SOIL, CLAY, FECES, MANURE, ORDURE, OPIUM

Chalky soils are highly alkaline and「inferior」since few plant species can thrive in such soil. Some say using chalk for religious purposes seems to have originated with the European missionary positions in China, related to all sorts of symbolism, but the European missionary positions in China may have conversely learned about chalk from the Chinese. That said, CHALK and its ability to neutralize acidic materials was commonly added to or used exclusively in poultices, in particular those associated with acidic feces resulting from internal digestive imbalances. Chalk poultices applied to marble can remove stains. Perhaps related to the English expression,「holy shit.」…see related glyph with these same elements: 𡌶.
PLASTERED with chalk was a method of applying an antibiotic environment to feet and other infected skin. Athletes apply chalk powder to eliminate fungal growth condition known as「athlete's foot.」Shamans used CHALKY PASTE to treat infections as the local witch doctor.

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.
