-San is added to the end of a name when the person is either older than you, or is someone you respect. Similar to that of saying "Mr. or Mrs."
-Kun is used by a persons of senior status in addressing or referring to those of junior status, or by anyone when addressing or referring to male children or male teenagers.
-Dono roughly means "lord" or "master." It doesn't equate noble status, rather it is a term akin to "milord" or French "monseigneur," and lies between san and sama in level of respect. This title is no longer used in daily conversation.
Senpai is used when referring to someone who is a teacher or mentor.
-Chan expresses that the speaker finds a person endearing. It is used for babies, young children, and teenage girls.
desu is a word used to grammatically link a subject and predicate. It is often translated into English using the verb "to be" or "it is" eg. Watashi WA Ceri desu - My name is Ceri.
- I realized there's one that missed out, which is "Tan". Well, the meaning is similar as san and kun. Tan usually for males, only between friends but not someone who are older than them. I hope this helps~
Example dialogue between friends A and B:
Person A: Oh! Hiro- tan~ Oyahou! hehehe...
Person B: Ohayou~ Ee(Huh?)? Matte(Wait!)! Hiro-TAN? Hiro-tan janai yo( it's not Hiro-Tan)! Hiro san da(It's Hiro-san)!
Person A: Hai~ (Yes~) Hiro......TAN!! hahahahaha....:P
Person B: ......@#$%!!! :P
* Ohayou = Good morning
