| In modern Japan, the case to use oke for the purpose of transportation or preservation has decreased and instead furo oke (bath tub) or yuoke (bucket for hot water; also called senmenki (wash basin) depending on the purposes) are used in a daily life. |
現代日本では運搬や保存の用途で桶が用いられる機会は減り、日常的に用いられるのは風呂桶（バスタブ）や湯桶（ゆおけ。用途によっては洗面器とも）程度である。 |
