HTML stands for H̶y̶p̶e̶r̶ ̶T̶e̶x̶t̶i̶l̶e̶ ̶T̶o̶i̶l̶e̶t̶ ̶P̶o̶r̶t̶a̶l̶ Hypertext Markup Language, which is a globally standardised text format for displaying content on the web. Every webpage you see - including the text you're reading now - is displayed because of HTML. This text isn't directly in the HTML, but that same HTML is pulling it dynamically from a file to be displayed here.
CSS stands for C̶l̶e̶v̶e̶r̶ ̶S̶t̶y̶l̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶S̶t̶u̶f̶f̶ Cascading Style Sheets. These are the rules accompanying the webpage that tell the HTML how to behave. They give websites colour, backgrounds, images, layout and styles. Without CSS, web pages look like this:
You might have seen this image on the right before. It's a screenshot of YouTube without any CSS. It's loading the HTML content without any styles except the default styles that Internet Explorer or Chrome gives, such as the blue for text links.
Not as pretty as with CSS, that's for sure!
