I'm often questioned about what words mean. These are all normally used pretty often amoung anime fans (Though not all of it is anime fan stuff or anime related at all), so I'll help you new peoples out..

Otaku The japanese word for 'obsessed fan'.
Anime Japanese animation.
Cosplay Costume play.
l337 An internet language.
Manga Japanese comics.
Hentai Anime porn.
Doujinshi Fan comics, mostly based on anime.
