I was just noticing how much of a family man OBama seems to be. His love fore his children seems warm and the smiles between him and his wife, seem genuine. How do you feel? Do you think that he just might be a nice guy, politics aside??
Well, I had to go look up what you guys mean by 'nice'!
nice [ niss ] (comparative nic·er, superlative nic·est)
adjective
Definition:
1. pleasant: pleasant or enjoyable
2. kind: kind, or showing courtesy, friendliness, or consideration
It was a nice gesture to return the money.
3. respectable: respectable, or of an acceptable social or moral standard
She's made some nice friends at work.
4. good-looking: pleasing to look at
What a nice hat you're wearing!
5. accomplished: skillful and accomplished
That was a nice try.
6. subtle: subtle and involving delicacy or fine discrimination
You may be correct technically, but that's a nice distinction you're making.
7. fastidious and fussy: very concerned and careful about choosing, or being seen to do, the right thing
You can't be too nice about your methods if you want to get the job done
Obama seems a nice guy on all these definitions, BUT the example of 'nice' in 7. is what interests me! Ok?
