Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
GRAINY SEEDS ON STALK TIP, ENCRUSTED GONORRHEA GLEET and DEBASE, VILE, DEPRAVED, VULGAR, DESPISED, DEAD MEAT
「Grains vulgar」were the poor man's grain as MILLET, if this glyph refers to 'pearl millet.' Modern fonts use the「skull」element, a head with skin removed, not unlike a head of grain with hulls scraped off:「depraved cereal grain」is POLISHED RICE with all the nutritious hull removed leaving only the starchy, high-caloric carbohydrate center for causing heart disease, diabetes, and obesity…or perhaps in that case elements are「cereal grains for those who are despised and depraved, greedy, gluttonous, avaricious, contemptible, disdained, scornful」meaning the wealthy upper-class aristocrats.
 「Grains despised」as MILLET (associated with gleet in other glyphs), if this glyph refers to 'barnyard millet':「Echinochloa crus-galli is a type of wild grass originating from tropical Asia that was formerly classified as a type of panicum grass. It is commonly known as cockspur (or cockspur grass), barnyard millet, Japanese millet, water grass, common barnyard grass, or simply 'barnyard grass.'…. The seed heads are a distinctive feature, often purplish, with large millet-like seeds in crowded spikelets. Considered one of the world's worst weeds, it reduces crop yields and causes forage crops to fail by removing up to 80% of the available soil nitrogen. The high levels of nitrates it accumulates can poison livestock. It acts as a host for several mosaic virus diseases. Heavy infestations can interfere with mechanical harvesting. Individual plants can produce up to 40,000 seeds per year. Water, birds, insects, machinery, and animal feet disperse it, but contaminated seed is probably the most common dispersal method.」

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: polished rice; barnyard millet (Echinochloa crus-galli); Panicum crus-galli
Japanese: barnyard millet, Japanese millet, sanwa millet
Unihan extended: darnels, weeds, tares small
EDRDG: humble; deccan grass

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.
