| break | Breaks out of a loop or a switch block |
| byte | A data type that can store whole numbers from -128 and 127 |
| case | Marks a block of code in switch statements |
| catch | Catches exceptions generated by try statements |
| char | A data type that is used to store a single character |
| class | Defines a class |
| continue | Continues to the next iteration of a loop |
| const | Defines a constant. Not in use – use final instead |

| extends | Extends a class (indicates that a class is inherited from another class) |

| finally | Used with exceptions, a block of code that will be executed no matter if there is an exception or not |
| float | A data type that can store whole numbers from 3.4e−038 to 3.4e+038 |
| for | Create a for loop |
| goto | Not in use, and has no function |
| if | Makes a conditional statement |
| implements | Implements an interface |
| import | Used to import a package, class or interface |
| instanceof | Checks whether an object is an instance of a specific class or an interface |
| int | A data type that can store whole numbers from -2147483648 to 2147483647 |
| interface | Used to declare a special type of class that only contains abstract methods |
| long | A data type that can store whole numbers from -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775808 |
| module | Declares a module. New in Java 9 |
| native | Specifies that a method is not implemented in the same Java source file (but in another language) |
| new | Creates new objects |
| package | Declares a package |
| private | An access modifier used for attributes, methods and constructors, making them only accessible within the declared class |
| protected | An access modifier used for attributes, methods and constructors, making them accessible in the same package and subclasses |
| public | An access modifier used for classes, attributes, methods and constructors, making them accessible by any other class |
| requires | Specifies required libraries inside a module. New in Java 9 |

| short | A data type that can store whole numbers from -32768 to 32767 |

| strictfp | Restrict the precision and rounding of floating point calculations |
| super | Refers to superclass (parent) objects |
| switch | Selects one of many code blocks to be executed |
| synchronized | A non-access modifier, which specifies that methods can only be accessed by one thread at a time |
| this | Refers to the current object in a method or constructor |
| throw | Creates a custom error |
| throws | Indicates what exceptions may be thrown by a method |
| transient | A non-accesss modifier, which specifies that an attribute is not part of an object’s persistent state |
| try | Creates a try…catch statement |
