fangfu （仿佛）, simile marker, simile, uncertain speculation, dictionary definition Abstract： Fang/Sz is often used as an indicator of simile. This fact, however, is overlooked by several significant dictionaries in their definitions of the expression. We found that Fangfu can be used as ： （ 1 ） an adverbial, to indicate uncertainty or speculation. （2） a verb, to indicate a simile. （3） a verb, to indicate a comparison, with a similar meaning to chabu duo （差不多 ） or leisi （类似） . Based on the fact that the expression can be used as a simile marker, the paper differentiates the use of fangfu as an adverbial to indicate uncertain speculation and to modify other simile markers from the use of it as a verb for simile. It also explores the different lexical, grammatical, rhetorical as well as discourse significances of the two usages. The syntactic patterns, rhetorical patterns and discourse features formed by the two different usages are also approached from different perspectives.
