Android Terminology

Like all newbies to a certain area, there is a huge list of terminology and abbreviations that experienced users fail to realise that us newcomers just don't understand yet.

What is: fastboot, superboot, root, r2/3/4, a2sd, adb, etc...

Without out understanding these "basic" terms, it can be very difficult for someone new to follow a guide (even if there is a video with it!)

Does any one think they can compile a list of these terms with a basic explanation and maybe a link to a corresponding website?
