兜

兜 covers many senses (helmet, bag/pocket, to wrap, to peddle, plus several Hokkien- and Cantonese-only meanings) under one shared pronunciation block that includes Teochew dao1, so it is unclear which specific senses are actually current in colloquial Teochew versus only in Mandarin/Cantonese/Hokkien.
