Perhaps elements are「bowing grain plants with outstanding skill」or「grain plants that are shamefully delicious」but oats, sorghum, and millet (see 芑) just do not excite most folks, in reality.
　Nevertheless and as expected, sexual euphemisms abound:「seeds at tip of stalk」with「noticeably faulty, standing out, kneeling and weakened, hand on penis」and「sitting person as service provider with tonguing mouth」in a flattering display of relishing that flavor, and perhaps the act as well…CONSIDER LONG AND HARD, truly THINK ABOUT, THINK IT OVER COMPLETELY, PONDER and REFLECT ABOUT whether you really want to place your mouth over that stinking, gleet-dripping, pus-oozing stem after CLOSELY INSPECTING and smelling it with DOUBT and SUSPICION, then PLANNING some DELAY TACTICS.
　After CONSIDERING LONG AND HARD, brothels in China purchased and then rented「an array of hairless runts as tonging-mouthed sitting service providers highly skilled」in order to make the most money, i.e., that was what most clients were willing to pay the most money to rent most of the time.
　Suggests someone must REHEARSE, perform MENTAL IMAGE TRAINING, PRACTICE enjoying it and then BOWING DOWN TO THE FLOOR to your host or client and KOWTOW. Or perhaps「growing grain stalks」that are「noticeably delicious」will therefore be quite top-heavy, and appear to be PRACTICING constant KOWTOWING as they bob in the breezes. But let's face it,「cereal grains」are just not all that exciting or wonderful, at least not without some serious other fixings added to them (consider: dry rye toast, plain oatmeal, gruel). In order to impress your host, perhaps everyone must REHEARSE again and again the well-practiced but still-obligatory polite remarks about how tasty a bland, ordinary meal of rolled oats and skim milk with no fruit compote or half-and-half actually was…(maybe cold rice gruel with no umeboshi or pidan, if in the Orient), and in the West something like:「this guy is such a schmoozer that he can even make plain oatmeal seem delicious.」REHEARSED, PRACTICED. STUDIED, INSPECT and flatteringly admire.
　Some scholars and fonts display the upper-right element as「emphasis marker on cover with palm, copulating」along with「sitting concubine and tonguing mouth」and a「bobbing woody」which all together do make more sense than literal barley stalks as REHEARSAL, MENTAL IMAGE TRAINING, PRACTICING and STUDY, INSPECTING and that combination of elements also results in an extra stroke added to the total count. Note that this glyph may actually be quite appropriate for instructing eighth-graders.
