wu
"Wu" doesn't have a specific definition as it largely depends on the context it's being used. In Mandarin Chinese, "wu" could mean different things like "no", "none", "not have" and it's also a common family name. In the realms of philosophy and particularly in Taoism, "wu" often refers to concepts like "emptiness" or "nothingness". Therefore, without a specific context, it's challenging to provide an accurate definition.
