Elements literally suggest that each person following will have an easier time of it, since the entry pathway will have been shaped and made slippery, with no need to proceed as slowly. Suggests a group scrambling to get first dibs [short for 'dibstone' and is another name for the game of 'jacks'…no coincidence there?].「Screwing in rotation queuing sequence within orifice, head plowing into soil」describes the ancient Chinese idea of EXCELLENCE, as might「slipping and sliding in a military meatwagon.」A「sequential rotation of one's mistakes, errors」might eventually lead to SURPASSING OTHERS if one can learn from those slips and misses.
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 excel; to surpass; to be scattered; variant of 逸, leisurely
Unihan extended: rush forth; surpass, excel
EDRDG: pass along
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.
