[The following represents an unverified English translation. For all purposes consult the original Chinese text.]

俱不成 [ju bu cheng]— (jù bù chéng) - [Terminology] This is one of the thirty-three fallacies (過 [guo]) in Hetuvidya (因明 [yin ming]), specifically a fallacy related to the similar example (同喻 [tong yu]). For instance, a Mimamsaka (聲論師 [sheng lun shi]) might argue to a Vaisheshika (勝論師 [sheng lun shi]): "Sound is permanent (宗 [zong]), because it is unhindered (因 [yin]), like a bottle (同喻 [tong yu])." However, a bottle is neither permanent nor unhindered. This invalidates both the thesis (宗 [zong]) that sound is permanent and the reason (因 [yin]) that it is unhindered. Hence, it is called "both are not established." See Hetuvidya Great Commentary (因明大疏 [yin ming da shu]) Vol. 3, Part 2; Ruiyuan's Notes (瑞源記 [rui yuan ji]) Vol. 7; under the section "Original Text on the Thirty-Three Fallacies" (三十三過本作法 [san shi san guo ben zuo fa]).

俱不成—【術語】因明三十三過中,屬於同喻之過。如聲論師對於勝論師謂「聲為常(宗),無質礙故(因),如瓶(同喻)。」瓶非常,又非無質礙法,則使常之宗,無質礙故之因,皆不成立,故謂為俱不成。見因明大疏三下,瑞源記七,三十三過本作法下。
