help building bicycle
I have never built one before and would like to start. The first thing i will need is a shopping list of parts. So far I have
frame
wheel/tire
breaks
fork
handlebar
chain
front/rear derailur
handle bar
I know Im missing a bunch, Id like to know the names of the other parts so I can shop for them. Thanks for any help. Also, I would like to know what specialty tools i need. I dont know what the names of these parts are so i cant search for them.

Just a suggestoin, you may want to look into a build kit. It will have everything minus the frame and will likely be less expensive than buying it piece by piece.
