Ishiatama
Several days ago, I introduced you to the Japanese term majime (真面目 - serious/earnest).
In addition, on another day, I introduced kimajime (生真面目 - too serious/earnest), which has a similar meaning to majime and a bad nuance.
There is another term that is used in a similar way as 'kimajime'; it is ishiatama (石頭).
Ishi (石) means "stone" and atama (頭) means "head."
That is to say, isiatama literally means that someone has a stiff head as if it is a stone and is inflexible.

石頭
先日、私は「真面目」という言葉を紹介しました。
また、同様の意味で悪いニュアンスを有する「生真面目」という言葉も紹介しました。
「生真面目」と同じような使われ方をする言葉として、「石頭」があります。
「石」は "stone," 「頭」は "head" を意味します。
すなわち「石頭」は文字どおり、石のように固く、融通の利かない頭を意味します。
