Iie, wakarimasen

A short list of pheonetic (that is to say, probably misspelled) phrases I’ve gleaned from a watching a week’s worth of Japanese horror movies:

Konichiwa: Hello (formal greeting).

Domo: Hello (informal greeting).

Moshi moshi: Hello (telephone greeting).

Arigato: Thank you.

Tasukete: Help.

Nonni: What is it?

Hai: Yes.

Yeh: No.

Aaaaaaiiiiiiaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!: I appear to be under attack by some kind of creepy kabuki ghost emerging from the shadows, could someone please notify my next of kin?
