Just for the sake of throwing some random very rough numbers out here lets use google hits:
"貴方" の検索結果 約 19,200,000
"あなた" の検索結果 約 269,000,000
Also I decided to bring it up because I wanted to know why you decided on あなた when Harumaki's user name is clearly visible.
Surely if you have to refer to him Harumakiさん would be better.
And just because I'm on the subject of pronouns, if you don't do it already avoid using pronouns as much as possible.
Hope this helps you out  |
Look, i know very well that i should avoid using pronouns in Japanese since they don't like to refer to each other directly, but what do you think I can do?! I simply like the pronoun 'anata' because it is the same that we use in Arabic! That's all.... I just like that pronoun.... and if Harumaki felt offended of that (i don't think he may feel so), i would avoid using it with him.
Plus, I prefer using 貴方 (written in kanji) because i see it nicer that way... And believe me the japanese themselves also write it that way and they did that multiple times when e-mailing me, therefore, i would never think of asking ya to correct that
