The Chinese character 井 (jǐng) for "well" is a pictograph that depicts a well with a wooden frame and a rope and bucket. The character is composed of two parts: the upper part, 亠 (tóu), represents the wooden frame of the well, and the lower part, 卜 (bǔ), represents the rope and bucket. The character 井 has been used in Chinese writing for over 3,000 years and has remained largely unchanged in its form and meaning. It is also used in Japanese and Korean with similar meanings.
