	Comments:	i take that to mean 'aye' vs. 'nay', which can both be int or n, but meikyo only has this as a noun, and i don't think you could get away with replying "おう" to a question... maybe we should only leave the glosses that can be interpreted as nouns (e.g., "he gave the OK to the project") similar change suggested by Scott on a different branch

	Comments:	I can't recall ever hearing it in conversation or seeing it in reported speech. Perhaps in an "int" sense? Perhaps too entries for 否も応も and 否か応か would be good.

	Comments:	gg5 does have those. i'm not sure that they're 'nouns' or appropriate here. would you or could you reply "おう" to a question and have it be understood as "yes"?
