The following words are reserved in JavaScript:

abstract boolean break byte case catch char class const continue
 debugger default delete do double else enum export extends false final
 finally float for
 function goto if implements import in instanceof int interface long native new null
 package private protected public return short static super switch synchronized this
 throw throws transient true try typeof var volatile void while with

Most of these words are not used in the language.

They cannot be used to name variables or parameters. When reserved words are used as keys in object literals, they must be quoted. They cannot be used with the dot notation, so it is sometimes necessary to use the bracket notation instead:

var method;                // ok
var class;                 // illegal
object = {box: value};     // ok
object = {case: value};    // illegal
object = {'case': value};  // ok
object.box = value;        // ok
object.case = value;       // illegal
object['case'] = value;    // ok
