Meanings of elements

GREEN SHAFTS IN MUCK, LONG VISIT TO A BROTHEL DEN, DENIZEN, WEAKNESS FOR SOMETHING with STICKY BLOB OR SPLAT, PUCKERED FLAMING MANY SEEDS IN ONE PLACE and with AUTHORITY OF LAW ENFORCEMENT, MAINTAIN ORDER, KEEP A GRIP ON OR GRASP HOLD OF, BINDING STALKS WITH SEEDS AT TIP, TO BUNDLE
…or: CRASS, STUPID, ALKALINE AND SALTY with HOLDING TWO IN POSITION AT ONCE, TWO CONCURRENT COMBINED ACTIONS

Concubines used salts in the deep skin slits of their bound feet to accomplish two things at once: dry the skin, and disinfect any wounds or straggling bacteria left by clients.「Rubbing salt into a wound」but causing a bit of a sting.「Salt in two concurrently」obviously takes into account that most concubines and service providers in dynastic China still had two no-longer-integrated feet concurrently (although, not all did…鶼).

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.
