11 years ago, I came into study Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) because of my research on event ontologies in crisis. Now BFO does not use SNAP and SPAN, but directly uses Continuant and Occurrent. And the description of “event” doesn’t seem to exist anymore.
After extensive application of BFO in the biomedical field, the owl version 1.1.1 was released in 2009, and BFO 2.0 was born in 2015.

I reviewed it and used the simplified Chinese version for reference. This new figure has class and property, combined with the Chinese-English version of the BFO 2.0, so that we can review the classics.
WHO USES BFO ? 225 items/ontologies so far. 誰使用了BFO? 目前有 225個項目/知識本體。
11年前，我因為研究 危機事件的知識本體論而接觸到 基本形式化知識本體(BFO). 現在的BFO已經不使用SNAP和SPAN，而直接使用常體(Continuant)和行體(Occurrent)。而”事件”的描述，似乎也不存在了。
我重新溫習，並參考使用簡體中文版本， 這個有class和property， 結合中英對照的BFO 2.0知識本體圖，使我們重溫經典。
Remember the BFO 2004 version when he was a child, then meet the grown up 2020.
BFO 記得當時年紀小之2004年版本與2020小大人版本。
