Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
STACKED ORIFICES ARRAY
…or: AIM, INTENT, GOAL, EYE on ROD
…or: TONGUING MOUTHS in LINE, ARRAYED
…or: MEAT ARRAY
…or: ORIFICES HEAPED on ROD
…or: the MEAT PILE
…or: MERCHANDISE, THE GOODS with ROD SEGMENT, ARRAY
Various sources list differing element combinations:「stack of orifices arrayed」or merging「meat」with「array」as in BOTH this and that (both feet, both orifices) or the「orifices within spread legs.」However, used as an element (see and 查 for example),「tonguing mouth array」that suggests friendliness of some sort but ONLY FOR THE TIME BEING such as in the case of a short-term rental of a service provider, or, not continuing orally until the finish since the climax into no-longer-integrated feet became obligatory for the most part in order to stanch the spread of sexually transmitted diseases among the clients and service providers of the shaman.
 In other glyphs,「two meat racks as friends」() was used above「array」suggesting service from first one of the friends, and then the other, likely found via a 'gateway.' Perhaps「orifices in an array」becoming ADDED TO what was formerly present, FURTHERMORE, one FOR THE TIME BEING and ABOUT TO DO the other? PILING ON. No matter how the elements are interpreted, the referent seems to be a bonobo-style activity of some kind. BOTH: possible origin of the English proverb:「two heads are better than one.」
 Perhaps with disregard for the elemental meanings comprising this glyph, some have suggested this depicts a cairn, which is a mound of stones used as a marker of sorts (such as a grave, boundary, or location memorial). Cairn stones were/are indeed laid in piles, but seldom if ever added to later. Nor does a stone pile convey any of the other meanings of「both」「only for the time being」「about to do.」…a pile of stones is not easily moved and instead conveys the contrary meaning of permanence—which, after all, is the very purpose of a pile of stones used to mark a place of special remembrance. After completion, stone piles generally remain in one permanent, unmovable location and are most often not temporary or only for the time being as that would defeat the original intent of constructing the cairn…unless the「stones, rocks」being referred to were in truth related to 'the meat pile,' and described all the testicles in scrotums visible from various angles. Nevertheless, the gateway into the shaman's cave o' wonders could have been seen as a mass grave marker or as a boundary into the world of death, and perhaps a cairn was used to let potential clients know what sort of meat pile was being offered inside, besides「piling on meat, stones, rocks, testicles, just plain piles」and FURTHERMORE, the「blow job line-up.」

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: and; moreover; yet; for the time being; to be about to; both (… and…)
Japanese: yet, moreover, and
Unihan extended: moreover, also (post-subject); about to, will soon (pre-verb)
EDRDG: moreover; also; furthermore

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.
