Meanings of elements

SHOUT, SOUND, NOISE, NEWS, INFORM BY MOUTH, SUSTAINED LOUD VOICE with SWINGING LANCE, SPEAR, WAGGING BACULUM
…or: IDENTIFYING MARKER, WARNING SIGN with SPEARING SHAFT
…or: STANDING ERECT with TONGUING MOUTH, PRETENDING, HAVING A REASON TO DO with WOODY STAKE SHOOTING, TAPERED WOOD FOR DRIVING INTO SOIL and THE HEAD SLIDING DOWN DECLINING, DAMMED FLOW
…or: NOISY DOG

「Sound of spear」as it is clanged against another to indicate the start of a battle, or the SIGNAL for a call to arms and arouse, MUSTER the troops with a warning that the enemy is approaching. A SIGN to GATHER, FORM RANKS.
「Identifying marker, warning sign」of「woody stake with declining head」as a MARKER, a SIGN, likely a bad omen of things to come.
「Noisy with wagging baculum」that contains the ancient「dog」element as referring to the feeling of desire for copulation due to hormone levels and pheromones sensed: humans have been selectively breeding canids for thousands of years:「standing erection swelled」with「tongue wagging panting in mouth」and with「dog penis wagging」as a SIGN that would clearly IDENTIFY which dog was the stud, and tying the animal to a stake would have allowed the procedure to be controlled a bit more than permitting the dog to mount the bitch of his choice. A dog with his spear erect and ready for penetration gave rise to the meaning of SWORD, SPEARING…and POTTER'S CLAY is the euphemism for god-like authority to determine progeny and molding the future of a species (not to mention slurry).
「Defiant slave howling」「noise, sound of screaming while swollen tongue is twisted, screwed out of mouth」with「dirk, spear, blade, sword」refers to IDENTIFYING BY BRANDING an unruly biting sex slave.「Defiant biting, sound of staked dog」as would occur when a guard dog barks as a SIGN that someone unknown or some animal is approaching. Used as a MARKER of some sort, such as a「noisy barking dog staked」to the ground to identify a place for some special reason. Is there any connection between English 'bark' as skin on wood and 'bark' as the sound of a dog, both being a warning sign of possible trouble? or one's woody-dog being debarked by a defiant biting fellatrix?
Note that there is some confusion about the stroke count, since most uses as an element combine the two horizontal strokes into one, forming a single element. Chinese and Japanese sources indicate 13 at the total count, but then most often depict only 12 strokes.

External source definitions …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may include extended definitions, euphemisms, and mnemonics)
Chinese: a sword. potter's clay. to gather
Japanese EDRDG: sword, potter's clay, to gather
Unihan extended: a sword; potter's clay; to gather

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.
