Question Senpai or Sempai?
I noticed that the word senpai is often written as sempai.
I've asked around in Holland allready and some people are convinced that it has to be sempai, while others know for sure that it's senpai.
Does anybody have the correct answer or can you use both?
Maybe some of the japanese speaking members can clear this issue.
