水 Water (Kangxi 85)

Rarer in this ranking, but still part of the 2,608-character published set.

More common than 閑 (Leisure), less common than 晃 (Clear).

Water on the left mixes with a tree on the right — water seeping into the tree produces lacquer, the sap mixing with moisture to create a glossy, waterproof coating.

漆 is rank 2050 of 2,608 in published Japanese.
