I keep coming across "35 mm film" and "single-lens reflex (SLR)". What do they mean? Any other basic or common terms I should know?

I'm asking because I want to play with snazzy camera. A hipster I am not.
Just your friendly neighborhood San Franciscan.

Any good cheap, vintage brands you would suggest for a beginner?
No lomography.

Thanks! Happy holidays.
