So i have a question does "danna" sama means husband or lord. Cuz in one manga the butler called the head danna sama. And in another the wife called a her husband ( normal citizen) danna sama. Which one is correct???

    Danna/旦那 has multiple meanings, so it means both husband and master (or patron). It has the connection that the person is the master of something like a shop or business. When used as husband, or means more closely "master of the house." The word shujin/主人 also means both master and husband. It seems like people use the term otto/夫 a bit more often these days to avoid the master connotation.
