The word 'jutsu' can also easily be spelt as 'jitsu', and despite the fact that they are spelt and pronounced differently, they mean the same thing.

Taijutsu :: Also known as 'body arts'. Taijutsu is hand-to-hand combat, a traditional method of fighting. Taijutsu involves no weapons or chakra use. This method of fighting combines the power of one's strength with one's speed. Chakra can be incorporated into Taijutsu, but it is not usual to see it done. Chakra is only used to enhance technique, such as speed or power.

Ninjutsu :: Literally 'Ninja techniques'. Basically any technique that uses Chakra to enhance the user's ability. All effects are real, but enable the user to do things that a normal human would not. Hand Jutsus are used to activate the Chakra in these techniques. There are certain sequences for each jutsu, though some simple jutsu can be performed as more of a second nature to an exerienced ninja. Also, some ninjutsu are elemenal (wind, water, fire, earth and lightning)
