Ok, well im kinda new at learning russian and i just have a couple of questions. Sometimes, when I listen to russian songs, i hear some of these words
же
тот же
то что
What do those mean and also, you know how there are some endings to words like -то and -нибудь (ex. что-то где-то) are there anymore endings like those and if there are, could you please explain
I have a hard time figuring out the cases and how to change word endings according to those. So, could anyone please help me?
же - emphatic word ("Я же тебе говорил!" - "I did told you!")
"тот же" - "the same"
то что - "that"
что-то, - "something"
что-нибудь - "something", "anything"

Also, about the postfix -то, you can pretty much append it to any of the who, whats, whens, and wheres ... кто-то, что-то, когда-то, где-то... and it pretty much means Somebody, something, sometime, somewhere.
