Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
WOODY, SCREWING EMISSIONS within ORIFICE
…or: CAUSED with ROD
…or: DEPENDENT ROD
…or: SIMPLETON, COFFIN, ENCASED DEATH, UNFEELING NUMB in ORIFICE
…or: QUARANTINED, ENCLOSED WOODY
…or: PERSON SCREWING within CAPTIVE SEX SLAVE ORIFICE
「Woody, screwing emissions within an orifice」can most certainly be the cause of DISTRESS, TROUBLING WORRY, EMBARRASSMENT, QUANDARY or simple ANNOYANCE due to the conceivable conception complications of impregnation when gametes unite, and, the risk of contracting or passing along a communicably infectious disease, virus, parasite, fungus, bacteria or some other pathogen to a new host, hostess, or twinkie during a momentary lapse of reason.
Or: a completely「enclosed tree」kept away from water and light will certainly soon become DISTRESSED, but it would need to be dug up and pulled from the soil first, and who would do that? and why? furthermore, most trees simply do not become troubled, worried, bothered, sleepy, or embarrassed (these are human traits, generally). Despite what some scholars claim, cutting down an actual tree and creating a stump in the soil does not enclose or surround either the roots or the freshly cut timber.
A SIEGE「caused with a rod, screwing in a captive dependent」as it relates to any sort of sexual slavery can be the source of TROUBLE, DISTRESS, ATTACK and so on, not to mention subsequently becoming TIRED, SLEEPY after the struggle for all those so involved. In any case, clearly a「woody fully enclosed within mouth orifice」when a sex slave for life may not have had anything left to lose, and so might have chosen to use her/his last moments clenching in revenge to cause DISTRESS,「to cause the rod」of the lord/master/perp to become BESIEGED, UNDER ATTACK AND SURROUNDED, become a STUMP…see the glyphs meaning「teeth」and「fangs」(歯, 牙) for a fuller explanation, if you haven't already personally suffered the displeasure caused by a set of upper and lower incisors (that make 'incisions') severing meat.
A thousand years ago, much more likely than boxing up literal trees, would be a「numb and unfeeling within an orifice」「woody isolated, enclosed」by a poultice codpiece that is DISTRESSED, BESIEGED, UNDER ATTACK AND SURROUNDED, and therefore must be the「cause, reason for woody to be kept quarantined」from use and not be permitted to infect others, or has already become a STUMP, to be STUMPED, TROUBLED about future life, DESTITUTE, WORRIED, and EMBARRASSED as a person in need of medical attention and at risk. A stump is the portion of something remaining after the main part has been cut away, broken, bitten off, or worn down and in a condition that leaves one not knowing what to do about it…perhaps the English expression 'being stumped' was derived from the same meaning as this glyph depicts, with the dreaded pox being a worldwide phenomenon back in the good ol' days prior to the availability of pharmaceuticals.

External source definitions …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may include extended definitions, euphemisms, and mnemonics)
Chinese: sleepy; tired; to trap; to surround; hard-pressed; stranded; destitute
Japanese EDRDG: quandary, become distressed, annoyed
Unihan extended: to surround, beseige; to be surrounded; difficult

Always keep in mind that these glyphs most likely were originally designed by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that), representing Chinese society many thousands of years ago, but intended NOT as a written or spoken language when created. 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, and often with multiple correct answers to each riddle, the same as is true today. Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? But, have there been necessary rewrites and altered explanations of the original elemental meanings over the centuries?

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 seemingly bad our human existence is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or could they 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 lexicon. This site explains multiple meanings of glyphs ignored or censored by other sources, generally as being too embarrassing to admit today.
