This sounds like a real difficult language! I just wanted to be able to say "Hi, Mrs. Shin!" and "thank you, goodbye." Sounds like it's a lot more complicated than I thought. I'll see if I can remember "hi" and "thanks."

It's not difficult, but you can't (honestly!) learn it from an internet forum. While the grammar is very similar to Japanese, the pronunciation is quite different and writing it in roman alphabet doesn't really do it justice.
Ask your dojo friend for those phrases.
