Sifu Sifu (from Cantonese spelling) or shīfu (from Mandarin spelling) is a title for and role of a skillful person or a master. It may be written with the Chinese characters 師傅 ( )/师傅 ( ) or 師父/师父. The character 師/师 means "skilled person", while the meaning of 傅 is "tutor" and the meaning of 父 is "father." Both characters 傅 and 父 are pronounced ""fu"" with the same tones in Cantonese and Mandarin, creating some ambiguity. A similar term often used in Chinese is 老師/老师 (Cantonese Chinese pronunciation: "lou5 si1"; Mandarin Chinese pronunciation: "lǎoshī"), meaning "teacher" or literally "old person of skill".
