Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
EAT, FEED, FOOD and TURN AND FACE TOWARD, SUITED FOR, BE INCLINED TO
…or: PERSON, TAUT ERECTION with GOODNESS and emphasis on that ORIFICE in SPREAD LEGS
May be simple food that is easy to preserve and will not soon spoil but has little flavor. Reference to「eating dried sticky splats of seeds that were boiled in fluid」as the soldier's DAILY RATION does conjure some hard times with some very hungry men. May refer to「being eaten」by「someone else who is naked and yielding」(饟), although access to sex slaves were used to reward and/or compensate foot soldiers on unusual occasions. Note that「inclined toward」(向) is an emphasis marker, this is the spot,「this spot right here on orifice in spread legs」however small that meatus happens to be, whence come those sticky splats of seeds. PICNIC is a quick outdoor snack, from the French pique-nique meaning potluck, a meal at which persons take their chances eating food generated by all the others who came, with all servings together often not knowing who contributed what. FLAT AND FISHY SMELLING also refers to flounder (the fish), and to behaving in a confused or directionless manner (eating stuff off the floor when really hungry).

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.
