    Sorry, I can not make sure the sound of them in korean. Hope you can understand.

    예쁘다, 예뻐 > casual Korean
    예뻐요 > polite Korean

    다 is a basic verb(or sentence) ending, it's got an 'as a matter of fact' feel to it.

    요 is a polite verb ending.

    You're looking at a cat and say 저 고양이 예쁘다 about it. I'd look at the cat to see if it's pretty or not. If you say 저 고양이 예뻐 instead, I might say '누가 뭐래?(which roughly means 'Who said it's not?' in a joking way. So when you say 예뻐 instead of 예쁘다, you sound a little bit more insistent or pushy. 예쁘다 feels like a fact while 예뻐 sounds like it's based on your tastes or opinions.

    잖아
    How do you use it? >>> http://www.italki.com/answers/question/103333.htm

    -어라/아라 makes an imperative.
    가다 to go 가! Go! 가라!
    먹다 to eat 먹어! Eat! 먹어라!

    How do you say isn't it? >>> -지?
    Like
    It is cute, isn't it? 귀엽지?
    It is pretty, isn't it? 예쁘지?

    How do you say these words in Korean
    To dream 꿈꾸다
    To stop 멈추다, 그만두다
    To start 시작하다
    To mean > this isn't something you should learn it this way.
    To laugh 웃다
    To cry 울다
    To giggle 낄낄거리다
    To run 뛰다
    To be angry 화나다
    To be sad 슬프다
    To be happy 행복하다
    To be excited 신나다
    To be frustrated 답답하다
    To be depressed 우울하다
    To be bad 나쁘다(we would say 안 좋다(not good) more often unless we say it about someone)
    To be cool ...as in 'cold'?
    To be bored 심심하다, 지루하다
    To be annoyed 짜증나다
    To be funny 웃기다

    The difference between 고 싶다 and 을/를 원하다 is that we don't say -을/를 원하다 in everyday Korean, it sounds a bit formal and as if the speaker translates the English sentence into Korean. In this case we might say '내(or 제)가 원하는 건(What I want is...)' in effort to make 원하다 sound more indirect.

    If so would you have to add 기 to a verb to make it a noun so you can use it with 을/를 원해? Technically, yes. 가길 원해? Do you want to go? ...doesn't sound natural.

    Also is 고 싶어 like an ending you add on to make it want and is 원하다 the verb that means to want? Yes.

    붙다 - to stick (to), adhere (to), cling (to)
    모이다 - to gather, flock, assemble, congregate, come[get] together
    ~어라 - I'm pretty sure it means "Do ___!" Like for an order.

    그것을 입어라
    Put it on.

    여기 있어라
    Stay here.
    ______
    Add ~지요
    For "right?" or "isn't it?"
    날씨가 좋죠
    (In speech, 지요 is usually shortened to 죠)
