Meanings of elements

EMERGING SHAFTS with CORRECTING BIRD CLAW FEET, HOW, WHY, WHEN, WHERE, …AND THEN…

Describing「what happens next」after「shafts emerge」and make「contact with bird-like claw feet in need of re-dis-integrating」: bone splints from bird-like claw feet that have decayed, those of a girl with sexualized feet who needs some re-dis-integrating after bones began protruding from the flesh and knit into shapes resembling bird claws:
　「At the beginning of the binding, many of the foot bones would remain broken, often for years. However, as the girl grew older, the bones would begin to heal. Even after the foot bones had healed, they were prone to re-breaking repeatedly, especially when the girl was in her teenage years and her feet were still soft.」
　　[　https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_binding 2012-12-17　]　
　Note the similarity with the glyph 'chick, bird' (鳥), still terms used today in English referring to young female human beings useful only as sexual objects and for their 'meat' and open-mouthed tonguing skills (白).

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: to fade; to wither; to wilt; listless
Unihan extended: withered, faded, decayed; calm
EDRDG: withered; faded; decayed; calm

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.
