The word "FOURN" is a rare and archaic spelling of the word "fourn," which means "to furnish" in French. It is pronounced as /furn/ (fərn), with the IPA phonetic transcription being [fʊən]. The word originates from the Old French word "furnir," which means "to furnish or supply." Despite its old-fashioned spelling, the word has been used in contemporary literature to refer to the act of providing or equipping, especially in a spiritual sense.
