fū zǐ ㄈㄨ ㄗˇ (1): 古代對男子的尊稱。 Respectful term for a man.
| 《·》: | 子禽問於子貢曰：「夫子至於是邦也，必聞其政，求之與？」 | | Zi Qin asked Zi Gong, saying, "When our master comes to any country, he does not fail to learn all about its government. Does he ask his information?" | | 《·》: | 願夫子輔吾志，明以教我。 | | I wish you, my Master, to assist my intentions. Teach me clearly. | | 《·》: | 瞿鵲子問乎長梧子曰：「吾聞諸夫子，聖人不從事於務，不就利，不違害，不喜求，不緣道，无謂有謂，有謂无謂，而遊乎塵垢之外。」 | | Qu Quezi asked Chang Wuzi, saying, 'I heard the Master (speaking of such language as the following): "The sagely man does not occupy himself with worldly affairs. He does not put himself in the way of what is profitable, nor try to avoid what is hurtful; he has no pleasure in seeking (for anything from any one); he does not care to be found in (any established) Way; he speaks without speaking; he does not speak when he speaks; thus finding his enjoyment outside the dust and dirt (of the world)."' | | 《·》: | 夫子曰：「由，爾責於人，終無已夫？」 | | (but) the Master said, 'You, will you never have done with your finding fault with people?' | | 《·》: | 子貢曰：「夫子之文章，可得聞也。」 |
