Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
PERSON MEASURING
…or: PERSON with HOUSEHOLD RELATIONSHIP VIA FEMALES
…or: PERSON with LIST, DATABASE, MANIFEST, LEDGER, CHECKLIST, TABLE, CHART, DIAGRAM
…or: PERSON with PRICK in SERVICE PROVIDERS
…or: PERSON with EXPOSED SURFACE, BURLAP, JUTE
「Person measuring」「person and relationships with household females」「person placing a commodity in separate sacks」as TO DISTRIBUTE among a group of members…and frankly,「placing person members into sacks as commodities to be delivered」is just as possible. One function of a lord's eunuchs was to insure the even DISTRIBUTION of access to the lord by ranking harem concubines for a variety of obvious reasons, and to do so meticulous journal records detailing each engagement were maintained. Note that「sack」is an English euphemism for one's bed, perhaps due to this glyph.
 「Person and journal listing events with registered members」of the harem: TO DISTRIBUTE means to apportion and to divide, often equally or per some standard of fairness, by supplying portions on the basis of a plan or purpose, or, to allot by some sort of measurement, gauge, weight, volume, seniority and so on. What must have been distributed evenly and fairly was access to the lord's sack of seeds by his various harem members as administered by eunuchs, a critical aspect of royal life in the old days. Access to and an even DISTRIBUTION PLAN by harem concubines to the contents of the lord's「prick sack」containing his precious seeds, the scrotum holding testicles that was likely covered with bristly hairs (), similar to jute or burlap…note that the glyph「female with prick sack」() means 'whore, prostitute' for this reason.
 「Person and prick with service providers」as a pairing of client names with the goods () for an outing or short-term rental, such as along a regularly maintained DISTRIBUTION ROUTE, or a winding path within a cave o' wonders.
 Some suggest「person」with「listing, database」performing some sort of DISTRIBUTION of goods, perhaps in burlap sacks, with possibly the「persons listed」who were to receive these sacks as bags of provisions. The「person with burlap」was someone in the process of making deliveries of SACKS or BALES along an established DISTRIBUTION ROUTE. Grain sacks, seed sacks are still today often made from burlap. BALES are bound shafts that held seeds, such as hay, grass, and other fodder used to feed cattle or other herd animals kept for meat, plowing soil, used for milking, and so on.

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 distribute
Japanese: straw bag, bale, sack, counter for sacks, counter for bales, counter for bags
Unihan extended: divide, distribute
EDRDG: bag; bale; sack; counter for bags

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.
