Answer

BASIN

This word has dual meanings in everyday and geographical contexts. As a common noun, it refers to a bowl shaped vessel typically used for holding water or washing. In geography, it describes a region drained by a river system, like the Great Basin in the western United States. The word comes from the Old French bacin, ultimately from Latin roots meaning a wide vessel.
