bucket
Well's lifting vessel
The handled container we call a bucket informs the other meanings of the word.
A bucket is also the amount such a container can hold, or any appreciable amount: a bucket of water.
It’s a notional storage space in computing, as well as a machine part that resembles a bucket: The front loader’s bucket scooped the dirt.
The verb bucket is typically used only in reference to heavy rain, which is said to bucket down, but to bucket can also mean to move or drive very fast, or to transport in buckets.
