Meanings of elements

DESCENDING SLOWLY below PRICK
…or: PRICK INVERTED
…or: PRICK HEAD with CROTCH

「Cereal」simply means EDIBLE SEEDS, seeds to be eaten. Throughout Chinese glyphs, cereal grains are used as euphemisms for ejaculated semen, and, as symptoms of gonorrhea, both「descending slowly between feet below prick」and「crotch head prick, prick inverted」(nonetheless, ingesting gonorrhea bacteria is not recommended for most folks to try at home, however dynastic Chinese service providers sometimes had little if any choice for that matter).
　「Pricks」with「lying prone and spread feet, head in crotch」with the ends of the legs (that is the feet, or, what remains of them) positioned above or over the head beside the ears…consider that positioning and what might possibly drip down into one's mouth. Interestingly, in English also, reference is made to 'heads' of grain, 'ears' of corn. Refers to the tops of the plant being very heavy and hanging down 'with the head inverted' (and what head hangs inverted most of the time?) with spiked bristles and ripened grain, meaning BARLEY. Heads of barley, rye, and wheat appear quite bristly, with long-awned, bristly spikes (rachis, the「pricks」) surrounding the seed grains, compared to heads of rice grain with much shorter rachis. Top element of「pricks, thorns」and the lower element is inverted feet, meaning「slowly advancing, very obvious, hanging upside down」as a reference to the condition of heavy heads of grain. Original glyph used the old form of「coming」as the top element (麥), perhaps since it resembles the spiked rachis of barley and rye,…or because seeds are「coming, on the way」as a comparison of the similarities shared by both cooked barley grains and droplets other than urine from a prick.

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: wheat; barley; oats
Japanese: wheat, barley, oats
Unihan extended: wheat, barley, oats
EDRDG: barley; wheat

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.
