    彼女: she or girlfriend. The Japanese pronoun '彼女 (かのじょ)' has two primary meanings. First, it is used to mean 'she', referring to a female person. For example: She is my friend「彼女は私の友達です」(かのじょはわたしのともだちです). Second, it can also mean 'girlfriend', referring to a romantic partner. For example: She is my girlfriend「彼女は私の彼女です」(かのじょはわたしのかのじょです). The context usually makes it clear which meaning is intended. When used to mean 'girlfriend', it is often clear from the situation or additional context in the conversation.

How important is this decision?「如何にこの決定が重要ですか?」(いかにこのけっていがじゅうようですか?). This adverb can also be used to express surprise or emphasis, as in 'How amazing!「如何に素晴らしい!」(いかにすばらしい!)'.
