Fill , Stroke , Path & Object
On Adobe illustrator, when creating a new piece of work there are a few basic things in which allow you to create your images.

Fill: This is a colour, gradient or pattern inside an object
Stroke: This is the visible outline of an object/ path. The width of the stroke can be controlled along with the colour. In addition to this the type of stroke can be altered by changing the brush type ( artistic brushes option and more ) the thicker you make the size of the stroke, the bolder the line will be.

Path: As you draw you create a path, this is created up of straight lines or curved segments, lines are known as open paths and path in which create a square for example, are called closed paths.

Object: Objects are the things in which you create with paths, they can be duplicated by clicking Alt-Drag, this creates a double of the already existing object.
