What 箵 means
It names bamboo and basket-related things in Chinese compounds.
Mandarin pinyin readings are shěng for bamboo, xǐng in 箵笭 for a cage or small basket, and xīng in 笭箵 for fishing gear; the tone marks distinguish them. Dictionaries also list a vehicle-basket sense. In a Tang dynasty text, from China's imperial past, a fisherman carries 笭箵; a poem sends it out empty and brings it back full of fish.
