Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
HIT THE 'BULL'S EYE', MIDDLE CENTER WITHIN, ON THE INSIDE, VULVA with LOOSE AND DRIPPING, MYSELF, PRIVATE, KEEP SECRET, SHORT THIRD LEG
…or: TO HAVE A LOVER with SEAM OF FLESH, CRAFT AND SKILL NECESSARY TO PERFORM A JOB, PLANNING, TRADING ONE THING FOR ANOTHER
…or: SNAKE with CLOSED SWOLLEN FLESH SEAM
「Vulva loose and dripping」with「flesh seam」suggests the outer surface covered with mucus and glistening, one possible cause of a spectral color display if seen under the Sun. Right element formerly was 㣉 indicating that this particular flesh seam was surrounded by「short hairs.」
「Snake」with「closed flesh seam」may refer to an untreated venomous SNAKEBITE (see 鮀), and the severe tissue necrosis following that will eventually display all colors of the RAINBOW. Right element also resembles the shape of marks caused by many snakebites. If you have the stomach for it, an Internet search of 'snakebite image' will confirm how many colors normally appear. A RAINBOW itself appears as a「two-sided, bending arm, from craftwork」looking like a「seam joining both sides (of the sky) when still loose and dripping」such as just after a squall has passed and the Sun reappears from behind the clouds, but it is still raining nearby. A RAINBOW displays all visible colors of light due to the prism effect of the Sun's rays through the many lenses created by curved raindrops falling some distance between the viewer's perspective and the position of the Sun. Falling raindrops are also depicting emissions from「both sets of genitals working within the seam of a swollen vulva in estrus」(霓) and seeing「all colors flashing」during a 'cloudburst' that is an ancient Chinese euphemism for an orgasm.

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.
