NET   

ARTEFACT of TIED THREADS, CONTAINING MANY BIG HOLES BETWEEN the THREADS.
Old Chinese Criteria
1. The most general term for a net is probably wǎng 网 (originally specifically a fishing net) and gǔ 罟, (originally also specifically a fishing net). It seems that both terms referred originally not only to the fishing net, but to a net in general; already in bone inscriptions and then in SHIJING wǎng 网 is mentioned like a net used to catch animals. 2. Luó 羅, wǎng 罔/網, bì 畢, fú 罘, and jū 罝 (small) are current words for bird nets which can also be used to catch small animals like hares. [Bì 畢 was probably of Y-like shape, and consisted of small net and long handle. The word wǎng 罔/網 is probably only archaic variant of wǎng 网. In SHIJING, the word is used also for a fish net. Fú 罘 can be also used to catch large animals like deers. 3. Zēng 罾, gū 罛, yù 罭 are current names for fish nets. 4. Hǎn 罕 refers to a small bird net with long handle; perhaps it refers to the same implement like bì 畢. 5. Zhāng 張 is usually a verb meaning 'to catch (birds or animals) with a net', but it can also refer to a net for hunting. 6. Weì 罻 refers to a small net for catching birds. 7. Chōng 罿 refers to a small bird net. 8. Juàn 罥 refers to a bird net. 9. Fú CHARACTER??? is a mechanism used to catch birds or animals. It was perhaps a carriage with two shafts, among which was spread a net. Mentioned already in SHIJING. [HUANG 1995: 448 - 449; XIANG 1997: 163]
