…or: LEGS NET with SCREWING as GOAL, EYES DIRECTLY ON the FEAR OF DEATH SOON

「Netting in spread legs」with「directly, hanged, heal, revise」as in TO PLACE, INSTALL a net directly on the infected body part for something you wish to trap (such as escaping fluids, stench) and to apply a poultice, then LEAVE IT THERE and let it REMAIN AS IS for a while, but REPEATED, REPLACING IT AT INTERVALS particularly after LEAVING A DEPOSIT within the poultice.
　「Netting between legs」with「directly, hanged」as in TO PLACE, PUT, INSTALL a net or snare directly in the path of something you wish to entrap (such as an animal), and then LEAVE IT THERE and let it REMAIN AS IS, awaiting your return at a later time. If the snare successfully entraps some meat, it will then REMAIN AS IS, suspended from a tree limb or sapling (the spring of your snare), hanging straight down as does someone「hanged by the neck」or a severed head, for example, later to be suspended in a fleshpot.

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.
