@snailplane: Thanks. There is always something new with this seemingly easy but pesky word.

comment How can a friendly person be “hard to approach”?
If the sentence is correct then context is important. Contrast may be the wrong word. I am trying to come with a Japanese expression with the same nuance as "firm but fair" but have not found one yet.

I saw the で as "and"/"at the same time". Perhaps I have always been wrong but I thought で could be used to convey contrast(?).

comment Is there a specific time to pronounce 日本, にほん/にっぽん?
Thanks - I've added the kanji. I don't this was why the answer earned a down voted though. If there is something else that is missing/wrong be interested to hear it - we live and learn after all.

comment What is the correct romanization of イー?
Re: "(I stick to Wāpuro rōmaji) use si for し"; in my experience input of either "si" or "shi" will produce し. (I prefer "shi" because that is how it sounds in English.)

comment Help with name for boy (British and Japanese)
I think Wasabi is looking for names which are western and Japanese or at least can take kanji. I know of a saimon and an osamu/samuel.
