What about Wuhan dojo kopechi na wa

It means, "I would like to eat some futons and sleep on a fortune cookie."
actually, I don't know. I'll have to get my Jap/Eng. dictionary and see. One thing I know for sure is that "wuhan" is not a Japanese word because "wu" is not a traditional Japanese syllable.
Each of these consonant-vowel syllables are not traditionally used in Japanese:
si ti tu hu yi ye wi wu we wo she che tsa tsi tse tso fa fi fe fo zi di du je
Some of them can be used in loan words from English, such as jetto (jet), fakkusu (fax) or mitingu (meeting), or in non-Japanese names such as Indiana, but very rarely are they ever used.

Mistake alert! Mistake alert!
For "No Doubt" should be just Machigainaku but I inadvertently spelled it as Machinaigainaku for some reason.

By the way, Moete! is pronounced as Mo - ay - tay, just so ya people know and don't say it wrong. (Like Mo - "eat" for instance)
If you have trouble pronouncing any of these words, just remember - the vowels never ever change their pronounciation
a - ah!
e - ay!
i - ee!
o - oh!
u - oo!
In other words, the 5 Japanese vowels are virtually the same as the 5 Spanish vowels.

You have a Japanese dictionary???
Shin'nen o Koete Beyond Belief
Kono Sekai wa Soto Kara ni Arimasu Not of This World (I might be gramatically incorrect on this one)
Koete sounds like Ko - ay - tay

That was a tough one, and I had to consult a Wa-Ei Jisho to figure it out.
