Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
ARRAY of VERTICAL within SPREAD LEGS
…or: ROD with emphasis on SPREAD LEGS and with STRAIGHT, VERTICAL STROKES
「Array, segment, rod」with emphasis on「spread legs」and「straight vertical」strokes to indicate PUBIC HAIR that appears with the onset of puberty, not only in the region of the groin and perianus, but also in the armpits, periareolar regions, chest, and as facial hair: a BEARD. Note that Asian pubic hair is fairly straight, and not nearly as curly as that of other genetically-related groups of human beings. In older glyphs, seems to depict the long hairs of a straight BEARD that was virtually demanded of men to grow in Chinese society (one penalty of criminals was that the beard was forcibly shaven, so for a man not to appear as a criminal to others, he needed to grow his beard). The beard was grown after puberty, naturally, so this glyph also means AND THEN, FURTHERMORE (continuing stages of growth to adulthood), and grammatical cases of a CAUSAL RELATIONSHIP, STATE OF CHANGE, or CONTRASTS, all associated with puberty and the resulting ability to grow pubic hair, but applied to linguistics:「…because you have a beard, you now have become an adult…」「…you are a man, you therefore must have a beard…」And so on.
 A COMB is used to RAKE through beards in order to straighten the individual hairs and dislodge larger chunky bits of food and other detritus: note the similarity with 'gushing, sometimes containing chunks' ().

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; as well as; and so; but (not); yet (not); (indicates causal relation); (indicates change of state); (indicates contrast)
Japanese: moreover, furthermore, nevertheless, and yet, and then, thus, and now, even so, though that may be
Unihan extended: and; and then; and yet; but
EDRDG: rake

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.
