Many terms will be explained systematically in this series of classes. This text traditionally serves as a kind of dictionary. Of course, as you go through you may hear terms that are not yet explained. Be patient and when these quizzes are done, some of those will clear up more and more and understanding will increase little by little. And you WILL get a proper grounding. Another general note, don't worry about certain references to Sanskrit grammar.
