If you're new to using the <a href="http://framework.zend.com">Zend Framework</a>, you there's one big hurdle you might have to overcome. There's a lot of terms used in the system that might not be all that familiar to you. Thankfully <i>Giorgio Sirnoi</i> has <a href="http://css.dzone.com/articles/zendglossary">written up a guide</a> (he calls it a "Zend_Glossary") to help smooth over the rough parts.
</p>
<blockquote>
When you're approaching a framework with a learning curve as steep as ZF, it's easy to be overwhelmed by new terms and declare them buzzwords. Instead, they have often a very precise meaning. I've creates this glossary to collect all the defined terms I could find, so that the PHP developer new to Zend Framework would have a place to come and lookup in the time of confusion.
</blockquote>
<p>
He breaks it up into a few different sections - generic/reused terms, common component names, what MVC and the bootstrap are as well as the different parts of Zend_Forms.
