Reference | See google for 「丁度いい」、「ちょうどいい」 |
Comment | 「ちょうどいい」って言葉のほうが「丁度いい」よりも多く使われそうです。
Google for 「丁度いい」 has 3,4 million, compared with 「ちょうどいい」 7,0 million, but notice Google even (somehow) includes the readings when searching; the very first result for 「丁度いい」 matches "ちょうどいい" in the page title. |

Editorial Comment | I think its meaning is "just right". For "just in time" etc. it would be ちょうどいいとき or ちょうどいいところ. Also has the forms 丁度よい, 丁度良い and ちょうどよい. |
