Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
WRITING A DOCUMENT, HANDWRITING with AN ARRAY OF ITEMS, INDICATES EXTENT
…or: PATIENT MEDICAL HISTORY AND NOTES with ROD, INDICATES EXTENT
…or: WHAT FOLLOWS AFTERWARD, THEREUPON, RESULTING EFFECT OF SOME CAUSE, CONSEQUENCES, SAME EVENT OCCURRING TWICE OR MORE IN SUCCESSION, AGAIN AND AGAIN, FINALLY and with ON THE VERGE, FEUDAL LORD, BRAGGART, CHUTZPAH, GALL
…or: ROD UP inserted into HOLDING SOMETHING ERECT and DAWNING, AN AWAKENING
…or: PRICK inside IN-AND-OUT SIDE-TO-SIDE END-TO-END with ON THE VERGE, FEUDAL LORD BRAGGART
「Writing, scraping, inscribing」with「array, a queue, in line」: some say elements indicate the time of day that a person can see well enough to 'write lines' continuously without the aid of a nearby wick burning some sort of liquefied animal fat, the DAYLIGHT HOURS…recall that electrical lighting systems have been readily available only for about 100 years, and then starting only in larger cities, so it became inconvenient to attempt writing at night, let alone to use a keyboard…believe it or not, smartphones had not yet been invented, either. Nonetheless, there actually were oil wick lamps in use at night that enabled writing, so this glyph may also likely refer to the time during DAYLIGHT HOURS that necessary medical procedures were performed (the literal meaning of these elements), and that there was no need for emergency procedures at night when seeing was impaired by darkness…a patient with this sort of problem could always wait until it was naturally bright enough for a medical service provider to see clearly, and avoid costly mistakes, so patients normally were not lining up at night awaiting treatment.
 Middle element likely is「say, tonguing mouth」and not「sun」formerly, nevertheless the Japanese who brought these glyphs from China may have interpreted it also as「erect, perpendicular sun over horizon」and ascribed the added meaning of NOON not used in China long ago.
 「Again and again with the dawn」may signify the DAYLIGHT HOURS.
 Alternatively but possibly unlikely: elements might be read as「erect shaft reaming hand again and again and again」with someone also performing「in the female role.」…recall that DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS the females stayed home near the caverns tending fields, gathering vegetables, and caring for the children while the males went off to hunt. After successfully snaring a sufficient number of small rodents to feed most everyone, the males had some free time on their hands, not wanting to return from「hunting」too early, since then they might be asked to help with tending fields, gathering vegetables, and caring for children. DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS, the way males killed that extra time was「scraping skin again and again」as well as「performing in the female role, and then the other guy performing in the female role, again」doing your buddy and then he did you, following the Golden Rule. Many males today still avoid getting home too early for these same reasons, so they probably did so in the good old days, too.

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: daytime
Japanese: noon, midday, daytime, lunch
Unihan extended: daytime, daylight
EDRDG: daytime; daylight

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.
