Definition
手戳 is a colloquial term for a personal name seal or signet, used in informal contexts like signing receipts, contracts, or official documents in place of a signature. It's a small stamp, often made of wood or stone, that carries the owner's name in seal script. Unlike 印章 (yìnzhāng), which is more formal, 手戳 has a casual, everyday feel.
