-1 pen
-1 green pencil
-1 yellow pencil
-1 red pencil

Ok x3 First, it's really<<< important to learn instant the Kanji too, because If you write japanese only in irighdfgh instead of かんじ you'll have big problems later.
Install a japanese Keyboard (IME) on your computer.
So, in the japanese language you have 3 types (Write that on paper):

-Kanji (underline it red)
--Kanji is used for radicals.
-Katakana (underline it green)
--Katakana is used for foreign words, such as anime.
-Hiragana (underline it yellow)
--Hiragana is used for grammar syllables.
In japanese you dont have spaces.
Every single japanese sentence works with this formula:
TOPIC-ANYTHING-PREDICATE.
Write that on paper too.
The predicate is mostly a verb, but can be also a adjective and says what the sense of the sentence is. The most important predicate is desu (です) which means it is
As example here is a very famous phrase which I learned in school too haha.
AはBです。
AwaBdesu
Wa (always write instead of WA in the sings HA) says that A is the topic
desu says that B is something
A wa B desu
A is the topic, it is B
In japanese you have 4 (idk what it's in english, im so sorry .__.)
は(wa) - nominative
の(no) - genitive
に(ni) - dative
を(wo) - accusative
Japanese is like lego, lol. You can just put the words together.
If you have watashi wa now
It means watashi (me) is the topic
But if you put instead of wa the no
you have
watashi no
which means mine
Watashi means I/Me
Wastashi no means mine
Really simple in japanese: If you want to ask just add "ka?"
Like
Anata (Your) wa namae (name) aki desu (is aki) ka? (?)

Verbs, 3 types:

1 stuffed
5 stuffed
irregular verbs

1 stuffed verbs always (!) end with -eru or -iru.
You can use the verb so or you can be formal and take the -masu form.

私はテレべを見る・
Watashi wa terebi wo miru.
Ｉwant to see TV.

If we want to be formal we just take the RU from miru, throw it away and put on masu. So we have:
Watashi wa terebi wo miMASU. This is formal.
私は手ｒべをみます
If you take the first, miru, you can say that to friends.
If you said that to your boss or teacher
Well.. <.<
