Crochet Signs & Definitions !!!

Some  people were asking me what is these signs mean ? and even me myself when i start to learn crochet i had to go to many websites and see YouTube videos to understand what it mean , so here is the answer and how to do it ...

yo: yarn over [ just grab the yarn over your hook ].

st : stitch [ any kind os stitch ]

ch: chain {chain is to grab the yarn with the hook ].

sc : single crochet [ you insert the hook on the chain or the st that you have and grab the yarn , then grab the yarn over the two loops that you have on the hook ].

dc : double crochet [ yarn over hook , insert the hook on the st or the next chain and grab the yarn, now you have three loops on your hook , grab the yarn through two of them , then grab it again into the last two ].

hdc: half double crochet [ yarn over hook , insert the hook into the chain or the st you have , grab the yarn through all of the 3 loops on your hook ].

tc :treble crochet : [ yarn over hook 2 times , insert the hook in the chain or the stitch you have and grab the yarn , now you have 4 loops on your hook, grab the yarn over two of them , now you have 3 loops on the hook , grab the yarn through two of them , now you have 2 loops, grab the yarn again through the last 2 loops on you hook ].

htc: half tribal crochet [ yarn over 2 times , insert the hook into next st or chain and grab the yarn , grab the yarn into 2 of the 4 loops you have on your hook , now you have 3 loops , grab the yarn through all of them ].

v-stitch : [ you make a double crochet , then chain 2 , 1 double crochet ].

cluster: [ yo hook , insert the hook into your next st ir chain and grab the yarn , grab the yarn through 2 of the 3 loops that you have , now you have 2 loops , yo again , insert the hook and grab the yarn from the same stitch you are working on , grab the yarn into the first 2 loops on your hook , now you have 3 loops, yo and insert the hook to grab the yarn from the same stitch , grab the yarn through the first 2 loops on your hook , now you have 4 loops on your hook , grab the yarn through all 4 of them ].
