Meanings of elements

INTERNAL LINING OF SOIL WALLS and PLENTY, MYSELF, TO EXPRESS ONESELF FULLY AND UNRESERVEDLY
…or: INSIDE A PIT HOLE, PATH INTO NIGHT SOIL, ONE'S ORIGINS UPBRINGING PAST, MEASUREMENT TESTING FOR INCLUSION, RURAL and LORDOSIS POSITION, SOFTENED FLESH, TO MANIFEST, ALREADY OCCURRED, PRIOR, IN ADVANCE

A hamlet might be considered as the smallest of human settlements (in ancient China, five pit hole homes or more within a measured vicinity of square area constituted an administrable hamlet)…but,「prior to」a「hamlet」there was a PRAIRIE, MOOR, WILD NATURAL AREA, the COUNTRYSIDE, a RUSTIC AREA, a FIELD. Such areas can support「surplus, plenty of pit hole homes」without overcrowding.
「Prior condition of I myself expressing unreservedly」「inside the lining of soil walls」as RUDE, RURAL life of pre-human bonobos living in pit holes, and/or serving into rectums as do swine, FERAL as in returning to an untamed and wild condition. Suggests that rural folk in the countryside preferred backsides「on all fours with rolling stream plugging soil orifice」as described by many other glyphs. And while the elements may seem to describe a farmer on hands and knees with sweat rolling in streams off his or her brow as the paddy soil is being worked, this glyph describes conditions long before any agricultural practices, prior to any farming when the land was still wild, or, became wild after abandonment. Describes the human condition prior to 'civilization.' Moreover, not too many farmers deliberately get down on hands and knees in a rice paddy.
And, in ancient Japan:「The Early Jōmon is the first stage…of Japanese pre-history…[and] ranged from 10,000 to 300 BC…. This period saw a rise in complexity in the design of pit houses, the most commonly used method of housing at the time.」

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.
