「Emerging shafts in need of washing」or「shafts with extreme fluid flows」due to being COVERED WITH LAYER OF GREEN SLIME SCUM such as found on the surface of ponds, algae pond scum…gleet discharged during a gonorrhea infection that covers the infected person's meat like a blanket of slime,「shafts with fluid flows from the goods of many orifices with screwing emissions, woody.」
　Some kind of「water plant that grows in clusters, resembles thick wafting plumes smoke」as seaweed or water plants in general, especially ALGAE.「Intense」algal blooms occurred in the standing water of rice paddies after over-fertilizing, probably with pig and human excrement. Despite what scholars tell us, there are no birds chirping here, although interestingly the most ecologically harmless system for controlling pond scum and algae growth available today is ultrasonic chirping in the water at precise wavelengths that destroys algae cellular structures, killing all cyanobacteria (the opposite of what some scholars have described).
　An aquatic fern with leaves that float on the calm surface at the edges of ponds, having four leaves that are balanced in size and shape resembling a four-leaf clover, hence the common name of CLOVER FERN.「Duckweeds, or water lentils, are aquatic plants which float on or just beneath the surface of still or slow-moving fresh water bodies and wetlands.」

　Duckweed requires a large volume of fluids in order to thrive.

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.
