noun, noun, used as a suffix
Used in business or inventory contexts, often as a suffix in compounds like 在庫物 (stock items) or 売れ残り物 (unsold goods).
この倉庫には多くの物が保管されている。
A lot of stock is stored in this warehouse.
取引先から新しい物が届いた。
New goods arrived from the supplier.
noun
Slang term often used in criminal or shady contexts; the kana spelling ぶつ is typical.
警察は盗まれたぶつを押収した。
The police seized the stolen goods.
あいつは怪しいぶつを扱
That guy deals in shady stuff.
The reading ぶつ is the on'yomi of the kanji 物, used in many compounds. The slang sense likely developed from the general meaning 'thing, object' in underworld jargon.
