Kung fu literally means "skilled learned over time" or more simply "hard work". Traditionally a person skilled in just about anything had kung fu. Today it refers to the martial art coming from China or any martial art claiming influence from those arts. Hope this helps!

Both words are used in ancient China, but in modern China wu means martial or military and shu means art. Martial arts in China were always called Wushu or Ku fu not the English term of kung fu. Martial art is skill or development also Ku fu is any skill or development not just martial arts. So learning any thing is Ku fu.
