Meanings of elements

CHANGE OF PHYSICAL STATE, SOFT AND HARD with GULPING, INGESTING INTO YOUR BODY WITHOUT CHEWING, HOLD ONE'S BREATH WHILE SWALLOWING
…or: FREEZE UP, CEASE MOTION with INGESTING, SWALLOWING WHILE SUPPRESSING AN URGE, ACCEPT UNWILLINGLY, MAKE LIGHT OF SOMEONE'S MISFORTUNE

「Changing conditions, flaccid-turgid or to freeze while eating」「to hold one's breath and freeze motionless gulping」describes a person stopping in mid-swallow whilst beginning the process of choking to death eating mochi in an exhibition of「deficient eating, person lacks chewing.」During each New Year's celebration period, news sources in Japan report deaths by asphyxiation from this cause, normally very young or very old folks without sufficient teeth, experience, or mental awareness of the clear and present danger involved.
A「food prepared in a sequence」: first pounding the rice into a wad, then frying. Fried rice cake (or mochi) is steaming hot and full of extremely thick white bubbles, as might be a mouth moving to the「next good person to eat」「eating two with gaping mouth, hard blowing」and so on, but in some danger by doing so.
By the way, mochi is actually pretty good, so try some if you have the opportunity, but know that you will also be taking a chance with your life. It is especially difficult to eat just one DEEP FRIED MOCHI, with everyone scrambling to always「eat the next in a sequence.」

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.
