すばらしい   (subarashii)

Marvellous, wonderful, splendid, magnificent...

o_o Multi-tasking word...? XD

--------------------

Edit:  On typing in Japanese, you can usually do this by adjusting the Language settings on your computer, or download free software like IME for Windows. For Mac OS X, I don't think any additional software is necessary.

I followed this tutorial:

http://www.tofugu.com/guides/type-japanese-apple-os-x/

Or download IME for Windows, for free, from here:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/details.aspx?id=22917

Just google around for help, as there's a lot of useful info out there. Once you've enabled Japanese typing on your computer, I think it works when you type in the Romanji for the word you want and the computer then converts it to Hiragana (or Katakana) for you.  To change it into Kanji, press the down arrow key to show the list of Kanji options. Hit 'enter' to select it, then 'enter' again to move onto your next word.

So, you would type in Rusu => るす => 留守 Is that what you wanted? :3

If it's a good Japanese keyboard software, it should have all the important Kanji. Apparently, typing in Romanji is more common practice for Japanese people than straight Hiragana typing... but I got this info from the internet, so yeah... >.< It does get a bit troublesome switching between English and Hiragana all the time, though... ah wells~~ Hopefully this keyboard thing works for you!
