[kager]

Hello, I was wondering if one of you guys and/or girl can help me out here. I am wondering about some words that appears in manga and anime. Those words are:

Sempai
San (after a name)
Chan (after a name too)
Sama (still after a name)
And Kun (yes, after a name)

I can't figure out when those words are used and what they mean. Can anyone help me out please? It will be appreciated.

All the best for everyone,
Kager
