扫帚

noun

broom; large besom (usu. made of bamboo twigs, bigger than a 笤帚)

Refers specifically to larger brooms constructed from bound bamboo branches or twigs, distinguished from 笤帚 (tiáo zhou), which denotes a smaller whisk broom or corn broom. In many dialects, 扫把 (sǎo bǎ) is the preferred synonym.
