WHAT DOES SANPAN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

sanpan

Sampan

A sampan is a relatively flat bottomed Chinese wooden boat. Some sampans include a small shelter on board, and may be used as a permanent habitation on inland waters. Sampans are generally used for transportation in coastal areas or rivers, and are often used as traditional fishing boats. It is unusual for a sampan to sail far from land as they do not have the means to survive rough weather. The word "sampan" comes from the original Hokkien term for the boats, 三板, literally meaning "three planks". The name referred to the hull design, which consists of a flat bottom joined to two sides. The design closely resembles Western hard chine boats like the scow or punt. Sampans may be propelled by poles, oars or may be fitted with outboard motors. Sampans are still in use by rural residents of Southeast Asia, particularly Malaysia, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Burma and Vietnam. Traditional hongtou sampans of Shanghai, China A contemporary sampan comes back from fishing, on the north coast of Java Japanese sampan-like river boat.
