箕

• Agricultural: A winnowing basket used to separate grain from chaff.
• Domestic: A scoop or dustpan for collecting refuse.
• Astronomical: The "Winnowing Basket" constellation ($\gamma^2$ Sagittarii), one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions.

Primarily a noun (tool or constellation). May function as a denominal verb meaning to winnow, sift, or separate.

Contrast with 斗 (//dǒu//): while both appear in astronomical contexts and involve grain, //dǒu// typically concerns volume and measurement, whereas //jī// concerns sorting and collecting.

The shift from "winnowing basket" to "dustpan" represents a move from agrarian to domestic/urban contexts. Use surrounding imagery to determine if the object is an essential farming tool or a cleaning implement.
