Meanings of elements

IN DANGER, LOOKING UP TO HEAVEN and CLUTCHING HEART, MIND SOUL
…or: HEAD AND NECK with FIRMLY GRASPING SCRAPING REAMING DISEASED PENIS, SWINE'S SNOUT, PIG'S HEAD, DOG SNOUT (as euphemisms) WITH A BOUGIE and SPEWING DROPS FROM BENT APPENDAGE

Elements of「head and neck in danger, looking upward to heaven」with「firm grasp while bougie reaming」of「spewing drops from bent penis, one's heart and soul」need no further explanation as a condition requiring immediate medical attention with all the related ANXIETY, URGENCY, HASTE and so on, likely after a period of 'contentious denial' (争, notably with the same and related elements) when the bacterial infection was taking firm hold and urethral scarring began. The end of the long song of life (煞) and no more singing girls for you, buddy.

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)

Japanese: urgent, sudden, abrupt, sharp, steep, precipitous, rapid, swift, fast, emergency, crisis, hurrying, haste, end of a song

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.
