Wow, that's awesome!!! My friend has a Japanese dictionary, but of course it doesn't include phrases.

wow!!!Aragato gozaimasu sango-san!!!-^^-*bows deeply*

Ummmm... yeah. Whatever you said.

Rain is actually Ame. (ah-meh)
Eyes can be Aizu, but that's the romanised version. Bettwr to say Me (Meh) or Medama if you mean eyeballs.
I've always heard Goddess as Megami.
Also, I think Mune might have a bouble meaning. The litteral meaning I know is breast. I'm not sure. Similarly, I know Kimisama means you (Quite politley) but it may have a sceond meanoing, or context.
shitsumun ga aru desu ka? Means "Are there any Questions?"

Does anyone know the word for 'weapon' though?
