about the yue(月)
Does anyone know what's the meaning of 月 (moon) in lots of characters related to the human body?
For example 肩 (shoulder), 胳膊 (arm), 肘 (elbow), 胎 (fetus), 脚 (foot).
And often is 月 the meaning element, the other part being the phonetic element: 胳 (ge) = 月 + 各 (ge).
Any explanation? What's the relation between the human body and the moon? Does it comes from a chinese myth?
Are Chinese moon inhabitants descents?

Hello.
As far as I know,月 is a simplified form of 肉 and the character originated from 甲骨文小篆.肉 exactly refers to human body.For instance:脑,脸,腮,肋,肚,肝,肛,肠,肿,脂,肪,胆,脉,脯.
You got it right.In Chinese,usually the meaning element on the left and the phonetic element on the right.But in some case the meaning element could be beneaththe phonetic element,e.g.腐,背.
月 in general could be related to human body,but in modern Chinese,it could also refer to the moon,for example:明,朗,朝,期,朦胧.

If you really want to comprehend deeply how "Chinese characters" generally constitute, you'll have to refer to some profound books such as "說文解字" (Shuōwén Jiězì), but I'm afraid that perhaps you won't understand what those explanations mean, if you don't have a great knowledge of Chinese language.
