Tips

盒子 is a neutral and very common noun. It differs from (xiāngzi), which usually refers to larger boxes or trunks. Avoid confusing 盒子 with (bāo), which means bag or package but is softer and flexible rather than rigid.

Use 盒子 when you want to emphasize a small, often rigid container, especially one with a lid.
