Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
DEEP FEELING, UNFORGETTABLE with STUDENT, DISCIPLE, SUBORDINATE POSITION, SERVICING OR SERVING ONE'S SENIORS, YOUNGER BROTHER, A JUNIOR MALE
…or: SMALL EMISSION STREAM, ROD EMISSIONS with SERVICING OR SERVING ONE'S SENIORS, YOUNGER BROTHER, A JUNIOR MALE
Could be read as the「deep feeling OF a younger brother」or just as easily「FOR a younger brother」to depict BROTHERLY KINSHIP, perhaps with not a subtle reference to sharing「streaming emissions」(see , 'tonguing mouth of younger brother'). In Chinese, DOING ONE'S DUTY AS A YOUNGER BROTHER or sibling may also have related to the elements as「deep feeling stream of rod emissions」with「younger brother.」…and you can imagine on your own how that applies to BROTHERLY KINSHIP and so on.
 It is no coincidence that the English root word「broth」meaning fluids in which meat has been heated, cooked and fired, is used to describe「someone who broths」as a brother and a「house for brothing」as a brothel. Moreover, this glyph uses the same elements as that means 'anxious, angry, sorry, depressed' with「emissions spurting」either added or as a modification, suggesting that somehow a YOUNGER BROTHER is angry and anxious with regard to emissions, likely those of an older brother whom the younger must now be concerned about since he followed after his elder brother at the brothel, or must care for his brother in some manner such as by changing his poultices, or maybe just likes him and doesn't want to see him suffer.

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: to do one's duty as a younger brother
Japanese: respect for one's elders, harmony among siblings
Unihan extended: brotherly, respectful
EDRDG: serving our elders

Used within names (nanori)
とも ・ やす ・ やすし ・ よし ・ ちか

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.
