I've been learning for a while now, and i'm not that good but I know a few things.

In the first bit of jap you posted, I think you accidentally made that a question.
And in the second, isn't bread ぱん?

Yeah. My typing mistake.
I d/led Rosetta Stone and I've been using it. It works really well, considering I remember everything and I haven't used the program in weeks.

おとこのこぱんおはしっています。

I don't understand the Japanese signs but I do know a few Japanese words like:

Strawberry = Ichigo
Cat = Neko
Cherry Blossom= Sakura

But I have no idea what the desert that we love and know as trifle is called in Japanese.
