- That's a good idea!

Here's the little bit I know...

Hello (and goodbye) = Namaste
How are you = aap kaise hai (formal m.)
aap kaisi hai (formal f.)
good = acha
ok = tikey
yes = ji/ha
no = nahi
Please = kripyaa
Thank you = dhanyavad/Shukriya
you = aap (formal)
tum (informal)
I = main/hum
we = hum
why = kyu
where = kahaan
who = kaun
what = kya

note: the 'u' should generally be pronounced as a short 'oo' in this transliteration, as in 'two', except for 'hum' in which it's like the 'u' in 'gun'

i hope you dont mind but i have made a few corrections to your list. the words/expressions in red are slightly mis-spelt and should be as follows:

how are you = aap kaise [b]hai.N[/b]
aap kaisii [b]hai.N[/b]

ok = [b]thiik hai[/b]
no = [b]nahii.N[/b]
why= [b]kyU.N[/b]
