There are more words but i won't tell. I used two books, one was called "Japanese Made Easy" and the other was a Japanese Dictionary.I studied these over everyday so i'd surely remember.
If you want to learn i suggest getting a few books and tapes so you'll be ready for anything that has something to do with Japan. Japanese is very complicated. So you have to be patiant. All i can head you up on is that when i put stuff in perentasies with double vouls doesn't mean you repeat the voul twice, it means it gets duoble length in sound. A voul gets one sound or beat. The five vouls have anly one sound of there own and some words are the same Japanese words but dfferent meanings with English. Other words are the same English but different Japanese words. That's all i've got for you right now. biggrin smile neutral ... eek
