The word "vessel" in as many languages as possible

[Mads+]

Hallo!
I am new to this, but having looked through some of the posts I am amazed! The amount of knowledge and willingness to share this knowledge is nothing short of fantastic. I am happy to be in the company of other language fascinated people and hope to be able to help out where I can.

I need your help now for a single word:
I am looking for as many translations as possible of the english word "vessel".
BUT it is important that it is in its meaning CONTAINER - NOT SHIP - NOT BLOOD VESSEL...
There is another aspect:
As I need the word for both its meaning AND its graphic expression I ask you to please post the translation in the
alphabet used in the particular language, cyrillic, lao, thai, chinese... The idea is to be able to copy directly from your answers
and paste into a document - if possible, I must admit that I am not an expert with regards to fonts and Windows etc...
If any of you have comments on this I am all ears!

Thank you and best regards to you all
Mads+

Hello,

The Spanish word for vessel (meaning receptacle, which I think is the translation you need) is "recipiente"

[Fuokusu]

French : récipient.
Japanese : 容器 (youki) or 器 (utsuwa - and it can be turned into ki in compound nouns).

[Anuanua]

Hello Mads+. And welcome in the gang!

Fuokusu is right about the French "récipient". I would add "vaisseau" : this word means both a ship (maritime, aerial or spatial) and a large container in cuisine and cooking. In fact, a "vaisseau" is a principal component of "vaisselle" (the dishes) which the English "vessel" comes from.

In reo tahiti and reo ma'ohi there are many words. But first, a short course in pronounciation so I don't have to explain it at every word.
"a" is as in "water"; "e" is as "ay" in "gay" ; "i" is as "ee" in cheese or as "i" in Tahiti ; "u" is as the "o" in "who". The apostrophee
( ' ) indicates a very short silence due to pushing the back of the tongue very shortly into the throat.

'a'ano [a ano (with a very short silence between the two "a"s)] : small water vessel made in a coconut

āu'a [au a] : a bowl

fāri'i [fari i] : as a name, means a recipient. As a verb, means "to contain".

puru : a metallic container or a can

tā'ofe [ta 'ôfé] : a bamboo used as a small vessel (or bowl) for sauce

'umete : a plate

[pc2]

In Brazilian Portuguese:
The most general word for "vessel" in Brazilian Portuguese is "recipiente".

In Sanskrit:
पात्रम् patram.

[Unsui]

In finnish : säiliö or astia
in north sami : lihtti
in inuktitut :
Generally, the used stem points out what it is kept inside.
But it is however possible to use something like "which contains things":
piqarvik (North Baffin and South Baffin )
piqautik (East of Hudson Bay)
piusibvik (West of Hudson Bay)
