When do you use NI and when do you use DE?
Also, I was going through the books and some current literature. 私, is spelled in Romaji "Watashi", and in the first book I have for Japanese language course, its also spelled in Romaji AND Hiragana this way. However, I got a hold of a really old beginner text book that suggest it was spelled as "WataKUshi" in both Romaji and Hiragana
Kanji (according to Windows Japanese IME) would produce the same thing as "私" regardless of how you spell it. I am guess that both way works? Or under certain circumstances you use watakushi? I've been using Watashi all my life (I understand that it will pronounce the same regardless)
Thanks

Same kanji read differently watakushi is more polite but i wouldn't use watashi or watakushi unless I was being formal but I'm a guy. as a girl, I think you would normally use watashi as atashi sounds too girly for most girls。 But now I've confused myself and I'm really not sure. nagoyankee can tell you in a bit, he'll probably reply soon lol :P
