Pronunciation

[edit ]

IPA ^(key): [ɸɯ̟]
(Tokyo ) ふ [fúꜜ] (Atamadaka – [1])

Noun

[edit ]

府(ふ ) • (fu )

the prefectural governments of Ōsaka and Kyōto
urban prefecture, prefecture

Counter

[edit ]

府(ふ ) • (-fu )

counter for urban prefectures

Usage notes

[edit ]

Since 大(おお)阪(さか)府(ふ) (Ōsaka-fu) and 京(きょう)都(と)府(ふ) (Kyōto-fu) are the only prefectures with 府(ふ) (-fu) as their suffix, the counter only appears as 一(いっ)府(ぷ) (ippu) or 二(に)府(ふ) (nifu). It combines with the other prefecture counters 県(けん) (-ken), 道(どう) (-dō) and 都(と) (-to) to count prefectures of mixed types.
