Same syllable, six tones

bokbok1—bok2—博bok3extensivebok4—bok5—薄bok6thin

Characters whose customary Unihan reading (kCantonese) is this syllable in each tone, chosen as in the tone atlas (2013 standard level, then the number of CC-CEDICT words they form), with CC-Canto 2017's meaning for that reading; a dash means no catalogue character has that reading.
