What are the advantages/disadvantages of writing in romaji instead of kanji, hiragana, and so on? It's called the "Roman alphabet". Both the English and Japanese names have their origin in Rome (ローマ). |

Is there a difference between ほんとう (hontō) and ほんとうに (hontō-ni) when used alone as interjection or question? Sure. Most adj-な can also be used as nouns. |

What is the difference between these four forms of “to do”? @sartak: Edited the question to give it a bit more focus. |

Is there a difference between ほんとう (hontō) and ほんとうに (hontō-ni) when used alone as interjection or question? jisho.org claims that it is an adj-な, and I'm willing to believe it. Perhaps it is not often used as one though. |

Is there a difference between ほんとう (hontō) and ほんとうに (hontō-ni) when used alone as interjection or question? Your friend points a camera at you and pushes the button, but no familiar "shutter" sound is emitted. 「写真を撮った。」「本当に？」「見て、写真が在る。」「本当だ！」 |

Why is 「昨夜」 pronounced as 「ゆうべ」 {yuube} and 「今日」 as 「きょう」 {kyou}? It'd be nice to know origins of the other irregular relative time-based words as well (昨日, 一昨日, 明後日, etc.). |

When do you use 下さい as opposed to ください I've never seen a difference between them myself... |
