That's good that you understand start and end tags. If you can get more specific about your confusion about elements ("virtually everything" else is still incredibly broad...) we can help you better.

I'm not clear on what you mean by scripting elements within elements. Scripting is outside the realm of strict HTML and even CSS (that's what JavaScript is for).

I see. The first slide is more accurate ("nested"). The second slide is inaccurate or misleading ("scripting"). I'll borrow a quote from one of the replies to a post in the lesson's comments section: "This is actually the worst (most misleading) sentence in the course so far. HTML is not a scripting language, they are trying to describe the way elements can hold other elements, like a BR inside a P, which is itself inside a BODY, which is then inside the HTML. It would have been better if they just said ā€œmany elementā€™s tags (but not all) can be ā€˜nestedā€™ inside other element tagsā€ or something like that."
