Shouldn't be here. I'll remove it. I'm proposing as a new entry, in line with ユー and ミー. We discuss there if it stays.

I agree. But I wonder if we need that sense at all. It's only in daijs, and it doesn't a have PoS. "英語の代名詞で、私の意。" Compare with the entry for ユー: "[代]あなた。きみ。おまえ。"

reopen.

i still think the pronoun should be in a kana-only アイ entry.  we generally don't give romaji headwords to entries unless they are abbreviations, etc. not full english words.  by violating that here, i think we open a can of worms that would allow romaji headwords for all of the kana entries.  perhaps that's what we want, but it's not currently what we have.  so i think having the pronoun here is inconsistent.
