the を and が are respective particles used with that verb form in junction with the preceding noun.

を direct action. i BURY something.
が object identifier. something GOT buried.

You're thoughts on jukugo are just completely fucked up. You don't add two kanji together to get a directly combined meaning. They would have needed to make their words out of our english language and made kanji for them for that to be valid. One can extrapolate WHY certain kanji are used together to create a jukugo but if you try to take them literally you're going to make your head hurt. Go back and read the general background info on kanjidamage.

radicals = kanji, or other made up building blocks used to make other kanji. They don't directly affect the meaning of the kanji they make up but just use them to form mnemonic devices.

words = jukugo, kanji with kunyomi readings, or kanji who's kunyomi is the kanji alone.
