Any good book on C++ will explain the keywords and their use
But if you mean programming terminology, things like "Linked Lists" and "Encapsulation", I don't think there is one source that can possibly explain everything... however, a good book with a lot of good terminology is "The C++ Programming Language" by Bjarne Stroustrup, the book is very precise, and will have a lot of the most common terms you'll see
Anyway, if you got a good compiler, he will say something like 'error: keyword used as variable' or something like that. Not sure :)
you will get an error if you use one of the c++'s key words don't worry
I just said that!! :(
