and what else might it mean in another context?


I guess it is likely to be "抱負" (houfu), meaning ambitions or
resolutions, but it is hard to be 100% certain without seeing the
original Japanese text.


The first word popped up in my head was 夫婦 for hoofu. I didn't take
time to think about alternatives either. I know I am always wrong, so
why bother, right? This is why I am against romaji. Romaji confuses
the readers with unclear or wrong information and wastes time of the
readers.
