Meanings of elements

TERRACED SOIL SLOPE and POWER, EFFORT
…or: HUMAN BACKSIDE with REAMING
…or: TENSE ERECTION with SOILED BACKSIDE

Some claim this describes a place where water escapes a CRACK in「terraced irrigation」and its「power」causes an oozing of mud slurry and water flowing into other paddies further downhill, with each successive flow forming a new LAYER of mud.
「Human backside」with「reaming, tense erection within squeezing flesh」that causes oozing night soil flow from a CRACK, CLEFT after depositing some thick fluids within.
VEIN refers to something flowing in a long line that has filled a crack, such as a geological vein of coal or minerals, silver, or gold deposited within rock FISSURES and between LAYERS of different materials where the structure has split, perhaps due to a prior earthquake. Could also be describing the shape of a combination of thick fluids that have been ejaculated into feces, forming a VEIN within.
Actually, without the occurrence of an earthquake, the small dike walls of terraced paddies do not crack as a rule, due to constant contact with the clay and fluids inside that maintain moisture and the malleability of the walls. The paddies dry out a bit after harvest time, but then the internal clay-mud also has dried, so that nothing flows out…so in actual practice, terraced rice paddies did not often fail, and is why many are still in use today after thousands of years.

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.
