Shang | Western Zhou |
Oracle bone script | Bronze inscriptions |
Pictogram (象形) – an arrow (depicted in some versions in the oracle bones and then disappeared), tied to a thread, then tied to two wooden poles (originally depicted as 林).
Later borrowed phonetically to mean “no”. The derivative 拂 (OC *pʰɯd) stands for the original word.
Etymology 1
[edit]- not (verb) him/her/it
- Fusion of 不 (OC *pɯ, *pɯʔ, *pɯ', “not”) with 之 (OC *tjɯ, “third-person pronoun”) (Schuessler, 2007). The glyph conflated with 不 (MC pjuw|pjuwX|pjut) by the Han times, due to naming taboo. Its colloquial reading survives in the latter. See etymology of 不 for more.

Definitions

Usage notes
[edit]- Duan Yucai’s Commentary: "弗 is explained as 'correct.' Today, 矫 and 弗 are both written as 拂, and 弗 is mistakenly used to mean 'not.' This misunderstanding has persisted for a long time. The Gongyang Commentary states, '弗 signifies a profound form of not,' which retains the meaning of correction. In classical texts, 不 represents straightforward negation, while 弗 conveys indirect negation. 弗 and 不 are not interchangeable." So basically 弗 is “not exactly” or “not correctly” like an almost not.
- In modern Standard Chinese, this character is almost entirely used for phonetic translations. The character mainly represents the phoneme /f/ in word-final and preconsonantal positions.
- The characters 不 (bù) and 否 (fǒu) are far more commonly used to mean “no”.

弗 | |
---|---|---|
alternative forms | 勿 伐 不 |
According to Pan (2002), a labiodentalized and checked variant of 不 (OC *pɯ, *pɯʔ, *pɯ').
In certain varieties the initial has gained voicing and in some cases caused the word shifted to yang tones, either restricted to specific syntactical positions or in all contexts.
See also 勿 (veq).

Definitions
[edit]弗
Synonyms
[edit]Usage notes
[edit]- 勿, 弗 and 伐 are all characters that have been popular in representing the checked and labiodentalized series of negators, generally pronounced as /fəʔ/, /vəʔ/ or both depending on the exact variety. In historical literature, the exact choice of character varied between the topolects and the preferences of individual writers.
- In some contemporary proposals aiming to standardize cross-topolectal writing in Wu, it is preferred that the voiced variants of the negator be written with 勿 and the unvoiced variants of the negator with 弗. This is often received somewhat inconsistently, however, and the choice between the variant characters remains largely a matter of personal preference.
