あいうえお
かきくけこ
さしすせそ
たちつてと
なにぬねの
はひふへほ
まみむめも
や ゆ よ
らりるれろ
わ   を


the above is basic hiragana. it goes:
a i u e o
ka ki ku ke ko
sa shi su se so
ta chi tsu te to
na ni nu ne no
ha hi fu he ho
ma mi mu me mo
ya yu yo
ra ri ru re ro
wa wo
n(m)

山=yama=mountain
川= kawa= river
先生=sen sei= teacher
大=dai or oo= big
車=kuruma= car

there's some to start off. Look up hiragana and katakana to start off though

The japanese language uses three alphabets, katakana, hiragana, and kanji. They will sometimes use romanji (what we are using right now) but rarely. Katakana and kiragana are both syllabic alphabets, meaning that each symbol is a single syllable. Kanji is a pictogram language based on the Chinese alphabet, and each symbol is a single word. Due to the sheer number of symbols in kanji, it would be next to impossible to present them all here, and katakana and hiragana would be better learned through something that you can regularly refer back to, like a primer on the Japanese language. The interesting thing, though, is that if you read a Japanese book, you could find all three of these alphabets in a single sentence, and maybe even have romanji as well.

I don't quite understand you. You mean Hiragana?

hiragana
あいうえお かきくけこ さしすせそ たちつてと なにぬねの
はひふへほ まみむめも やゆよ らりるれろ わをん
っゃゅょ    がぎぐげご ざじずぜぞ だぢづでど 
ばびぶべぼ ぱぴぷぺぽ

katakana
アイウエオ カキクケコ サシスセソ タチツテト ナニヌネノ
ハヒフヘホ マミムメモ ヤユヨ ラリルレロ ワヲン
ッャュョ  ガギグゲゴ ザジズゼゾ ダヂヅデド バビブベボパピプペポ

Symbols?
。・?、!#

And many kanji.
