Meanings of elements

ROCKS and EXCRUCIATING, BEGGING, ENTREATING, PROSTRATED WRITHING PERSON

The most distinguishing aspect of a slave's work is that it is never done, never completed, normally continues until death:「rocks with excruciating, begging」refers to「testicles」as rocks of the master behind the slave, or the rocks of the slave as he is bent over. Testicles are the source of testosterone and the cause of the male of any species' daily toil and ENSLAVEMENT to satisfy that natural desire to reproduce, vital for the continuation of his species…perhaps how a male begs a partner for sex. The work of a sex slave/service provider with a lord, owner, or client. And of course, geological rocks are normally incapable of begging.

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 toil
Unihan extended: toil, slave away; busy
EDRDG: toil; slave away; busy

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.
