Do you speak japanese?
I think that would be
nihongo ga dekimas(u) ka? but ^-^; I dunno if elizabeths frase is best
thank you for listening
>< cat find I guess you could always say doomo arigato(it means thanks literaly) I dont think that japanese PPl have an exeption to thanks I think they just say thank tou for every thing
thank you for the evening= dommo arigato
thank you= dommo arigato (or arigato alone)
(pics up another diccionary)
nope cant find ^-^; maybe someone that actually is japanese can help more

"I love rice"
"Please let me go to japan"
"Maria and I are very responsible"
"We will be ok"
"Your Welcome"
"Can you tell me where the bathroom is?"
"You all fight way to much"
"Shut up"
"I can't take it" and I think that's it. I kno this is a lot but I would just like to kno
Arigatou
P.S. Is it Arigato or Arigatou?

^-^
Here are the ways I would say ^-^; most of what you asked for
"I love rice" (gohan suki desu) (gohan oishi.i = rice (this rice) is delicious)
"Your Welcome" (do itashimashite) (I pronunce it doitashimas)
"Can you tell me where the bathroom is?" (sumimasen toire wa doko des(u) ka?)
"You all fight way to much" (Ii kagen ni shi nasai yo!)(literaly means behave youreselves!)ﾂｬﾂｬ hope ot works
"I can't take it" (amari suki dewa arimasen) (litteraly means I don't like it (this) ^-^; hope its usefull)
Arigatou
P.S. Is it Arigato or Arigatou? (you say arigato (depends of the pronuncation of your language example I speak spanish so for me its ha (like in hat) ri (like in rice) ga (like in gasp) to (liken in token ><) you write arigatou ^-^; U when In the end of a word is often not pronunciated in Japanese so thats all I can do for you,
I wish I had any chance of going to Japan I put so much eford in my language learning I hope it pays out some day

They going to change quite a bit depending on who you're talking to -- but these are some more or less polite, standard ways for addressing strangers in Japan.
Futaritomo kenka (amari nimo) shisugidesu.
Stop arguing could be:
Kenka wa yamete kudasai. Or Kenka shinaide (kudasai) Don't fight (please).
And then there is the more polite way to say please be a little quieter:
"Moo sukoshi shizukani shite kudasai."
Shiro gohan ga daisuki desu.
Watashi wo Nihon e ikasete kudasai.
Watashitachi wa daijoubu desu.
Dou itashimashite.
Sumimasen (desuga) otearai (or toire) wa doko desuka?
This depends on the meaning of "fight" you want to convey and how many people "you" is. If it is just two people arguing:
Futaritomo kenka (amari nimo) shisugidesu.
Stop arguing could be:
Kenka wa yamete kudasai. Or Kenka shinaide (kudasai) Don't fight (please).
Damare! or Damatte! or Shizukani! (Quiet!) or Urasai! (Noisy!)
And then there is the more polite way to say please be a little quieter:
"Moo sukoshi shizukani shite kudasai."
Mou gaman dekimasen.
Maria mo watashi mo totemo sekininkan ga tsuyoi desu.

Re: Elizabeth san (or anyone else ^-^; )
You can't really translate it directly, but I think "Kono kotoba wa watashi no seikatsu no shi ni igi no aru mono desu." (These words are the thing that have meaning for the poem of my life) is the closest. Or, you could say "These words are the force that gives the poem of my life meaning." "Because of these words, my life has meaning" is also possible -- but it would still sound a little funny.

I have a question. When you say Ashleigh in a Japanese sentence, do you say Ashleigh? My friend is Korean, and u say my name differently.

Oh, and one more thing, Arigatou to all the people who helped me with my list of things. My friend and I are trying to convince our moms to let us go to japan when we get older, and they aren't budging an inch.
One last question. When you say Icchan, do you pronounce it (Ichan)?
Arigatou,
Aisha
