Hello GBAtemp, I decided to write a "Dictionary" on 3dsHomebrew Hope you enjoy
I will write this in sections based on subjects! So sit back and relax and read on!
this is a work in progress, i will add as much as I can.

emuNAND: The NAND that boots off a SD Card (See CFW)
Context: "The emuNAND does not cause bricks"

sysNAND: The NAND that comes with your System
Context: "The sysNAND is a risky thing to play with"

NAND: The Nintendo System that comes with your console, or its "emulated" from a SD card (See sysNAND and emuNAND)
Context: "Don't overwrite the NAND in FBI"

A9LH: The future of CFW's as the "Master Race" Puts it
Context: "We are the a9lh master race!"

CFW: A CFW (Custom FirmWareis the object of patching the "emuNAND" (or even the sysNAND) and letting it run custom .cia's (See rxTools ,ReiNAND)
Context: "I don't use a CFW"

rxTools: A type of CFW (Custom FirmWare) that allows both sysNAND and emuNAND to be used as a CFW (Or signature patching)it includes a game dumper, key dumper, sysNAND and emuNAND backup support, and much much more. (see CFW)
Context: "I use rxTools as my CFW"

ReiNAND: Another type of CFW (I don't know much on ReiNAND) (see CFW)
Context: "ReiNAND is much much better then any CFW"

Menuhax: Most commonly used along side browserhax, and is the most used hax payload ever. (See browserhax)

Browserhax: Used along side Menuhax it's main focus is to access the homebrew launcher to install another payload (see Menuhax)

Ironhax: Once used before the menuhax era it was a good hax payload until its death in september 2015

Ninjhax: Used alongside Cubic Ninja the proccess was simple, place the starter kit onto your system and scan a QR code.

Oothax: One of the other popular hax payload, it needs a powersave of some sort and a copy of Ocarina Of Time3D.

Soft Brick: Most commonly happens after failing a Downgrade (See also Hard Brick and Downgrade)

Hard Brick: Most commonly happens when a failing a downgrade or messing with the NAND (See also Soft Brick and Downgrade)

Downgrade: Moving the system to a diffrent version, most commonly 9.2 to install a CFW (See CFW, ReiNAND, and rxTools)
