  1. Some of them are fragments, but I'll try helping you on them.

    1. I assume you mean "ja ne". That means "bye", and it's used in informal speech.

    2. "Wasurenai" is correct spelling, and it's the informal negative conjugation for the verb "wasureru", which means "to forget". So, "wasurenai" means "(I/you/he/she/it/etc.) don't/doesn't forget".

    3. "Nda" is used in informal speech, and it's attached to the end of a sentence when you want to offer advice instead of stating actual information. It's formal form is "no desu", and other informal forms are "noda" and "udesu". "Yo" is used to add more emphasis.

    Hope I helped.


  2. 1. ~ jan? = ~, right? (casual),

    2. wasurena = forget it.

    3. nda yo = same as 'desu/masu' but in casual term, giving information to someone
