    You googled and couldn't find anything? Try the keyword "define:dll"

    Not only do the quick explanations tell you all the basics, but the links provided tell you even more detail.
    If you understand what you're doing, you're not learning anything.

    A dynamically linked library is Microsofts implementation of the shared library concept. You can read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Link_Library
    Or do what itsme said. Equally good.
