In Tetris, 'tetriminos' are the different shaped blocks you control, and 'clearing lines' means completing a row to make it disappear. 'T-spin' is a move where you rotate a T-shaped piece into a tight spot to clear lines.
A 'Tetris' is when you clear four lines at once using the long I-shaped piece. It's the ultimate power move!
