Meanings of elements

CONTAINER of VICIOUSNESS within WRAPPING
…or: WRAPPED EVIL
…or: HEAD TENSE with BAD LUCK, CALAMITY

Meaning CHEST, literally with blood vessels for delivering oxygen and removing carbon dioxide from within the body wrapping the LUNGS and connecting to the HEART. And as the seat of thoughts, emotions, or feelings as a「wrapped container of brains」or「wrapped up in evil.」…the idea of「head in high tension for long time with vile evil」sometimes being present in the bosom or heart, as well as the concept of linking the mind and brain (central element is an「opened skull, brains exposed」) with the BOSOM, CHEST and lungs. LUNGS are「wrapped containers full of weave」wrapped by the pleura and filled with a weave of air sacs, the alveoli. Similar glyph (匂) of「head, wrapped by concubine」or tightly bound and「wrapped no-longer-integrated concubine feet」as evil in a wrapper, clearly indicates the nature of this glyph as well and what may be in the heart and mind.

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: old variant of 胸; Hungary; Hungarian; abbr. for 匈牙利
Japanese: Hungary
Unihan extended: breast, chest, thorax; clamor; the Hsiung Nu 'Huns'

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.
