こんにちは！
My name is Jacob, and I am semi new to Japanese... I have been 'studying' since last year December but haven't been studying hard. Learning this difficult language is a side task for me- something I do if I have spare time. Well, since my language level is probably the same as a Japanese preschooler, I will have alot of questions. I also know nothing of Kanji, and I know barely any katakana, so writing in Full Hiragana would be super appreciated. ^~^
So first off, what would the grammar structure be for an everyday sentence? I know that the japanese sentence structure has the verb at the end. But that's about it. Can anyone give me an everyday sentence that includes everything to know about a Japanese sentence?
Also, what are all the particles to know for a japanese sentence? Particles as in の、と、は、etc. I plan on taking the information that you give to me and making them into flashcards so that I can know them.
Can someone also give me the 5Ws? The 5Ws is 'Where, When, Which, Who, Why'. I would like the japanese equivalent of all these, and any extras that are essential to know, like
ここ(here) and あそこ(over there).
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and if you comment, thanks for helping me! I really hope I can learn to speak fluently, and maybe read Kanji fluently, if I ever come to the point where I need it.
ありがとうございます！

Hello and welcome.
When did the word "which" knock the word "what" out of the 5W club? :P
Anyway... Those three questions you asked seem rather like they require extremely long answers to answer them in full. People write whole books on that kind of stuff! :D
So instead of writing a book in this comment I'll take the lazy way out and post some links to sites which should hopefully cover those questions. ^^
1) Sentence structure basics:

2) List of particles:

3) Question words:

@mog86uk... you are helpful as always.!- Im going to use those stuffs too..
@Mog86uk, thanks for the links! I'll look straight into those and probably link them up with Quizlet. :) Thanks again. ^~^
