FTP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol) - File Transfer Protocol, used to transfer files to and from the server.

MySQL (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MySQL) - A Structured Query Language, a database system for storing of data in a fashion that can be accessed and manipulated using queries.

PHP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP) - Hypertext Pre-Processor, a scripting-language typically used to design web applications, such as this very discussion board.

HTML (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML) - Hypertext Markup Language, the language of the web, the web browser takes the markup and renders a page for the user to see.

CSS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascading_Style_Sheets) - Cascading Style Sheets, used to modify the look of an HTML document. It can change colors, backgrounds, and even an object's location.

ASP and JSP - Two other forms of web scripting languages, similar to PHP, only not supported on bluehost. ASP is a Microsoft language, thus it runs on Windows Server, and JSP is a form of Java, which is far too resource intensive for cheap, effective, web hosting.

XML (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML) - Extensible Markup Language, a general-purpose markup language. Read the page I linked to for detailed information.

I only gave a brief summary, which may not be that helpful. Follow the links I've given for more details on each.
