perhaps you want
table(names(aa))
Or maybe just
aa <- - c("Eins", "Zwei", "Drei", "Vier", "Fünf")
table(aa)

This does get more complicated if you want to add things by number.
But why not just
aa <- - c("Eins", "Zwei", "Drei", "Vier", "Fünf")
aa <- c(aa, "Eins", "Zwei")
table(aa)

Not really sure what this is meant to demonstrate.
More generally there is no one-to-one mapping between the stata
concept of variable and value labels to concepts in R. First, there is
no equivalent of Stata variable labels. There is ?comment but it
doesn't survive subsetting. The role that value labels play in Stata
are covered variously in R by 1) just using character strings to store
the information that you would typically put in a stata value label,
b) naming your variable, or c) using factors. Personally I usually
find option 1) more convenient.
