Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
WATCHING FOR SOMETHING TO CHANGE, WAITING FOR ILLNESS SYMPTOMS TO APPEAR, GENITAL INSPECTION, HOMOSEXUAL MALES ENCOUNTERING ONE ANOTHER with EMISSIONS
…or: DOING SOMETHING TOGETHER, MUTUALLY, OBSERVATION with EMISSIONS
…or: TREE, WOOD, PLANT, WOODY STALK with WEALTH, MONEY, VALUABLE
…or: WOODY with GOAL OF EMISSION
…or: VALUABLE with WOODY
Given meaning in English could refer to a species of tree or to a part of one's hand, the PALM…「tree」with「value」that provides useful products. Or「woody with goal of emissions, fleshpot」related glyph (桹) a「tree with sufficiency, good」or「good enough for woody」or「preparing woody for use」or a「good woody」(not diseased) might also refer to a species of tree or to a part of one's hand. Note that the English word for palm tree is due to the leaves and trunk resembling a palm and hand. The various palms are closely related to grasses and bamboos: angiosperm (flowering plant) monocots (seeds produce a single, leaf-like cotyledon when they sprout), and some botanists do not consider them to be trees. Looking at these glyph elements with the actual fruits produced by the coconut palm, date palm, oil palm, betel palm, and so on indicates that this glyph may best refer to plants…however, looking at these glyph elements as human palms in various modes also fits.

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.
