I have a basic knowledge of how to buy and sell Bitcoin, but I want to learn more about the technology and terminology used in Bitcoin.

That is a huge step to learn more about bitcoin, particularly through practice. Next you should want to learn what wallets to use and how to stay safe with the wallet of your choice.

You can then advance to technicalities like running your node and using layer 2 payment solutions.

so a friend told me about this forum and that here would be of great help to me. If anyone can recommend materials that would be of great help to my learning process It would be much appreciated.

You will gets lots of materials you can use. If you encounter any difficulties while studying them, you can come back to ask for more directions.

Welcome to this old-fashioned forum, I hope you will enjoy your time here and will learn new things, and talking about your request, I would say, there are hundreds of topics that I can mention here that you should read, around 40 are already bookmarked in my browser already, so I only have to spend few hours to find other 60. But, that would be of no help to you.

There used to be a single thread made by Ratimov (I don't remember his new username) well, that thread was full of useful topics and he called that thread an encyclopedia. Well, that thread does not exist anymore.

I will suggest you to read topics on Development & Technical Discussion which is the second section on the home page, because mentioning few topics might not be of use as you are seeking technical topics, and you can find them in the aforementioned section.

Instead, you can teach the OP how to use the archives since you remembered the person's manuals. As far as I read, the admin wrote that several of his creations were saved.
Although there is plenty of everything on the forum that the OP would be interested in.

Thanks for mentioning this thread as I was not aware of it and you are right I should mention archives but hey discussing us about archives will give OP an idea about them like this also exists. To be honest, the best advice I have for OP is to follow big OGz of this forum and one of them is LoyceV as he has really made some decent topics like the aforementioned one, I did not know about this one before or maybe I did not give any attention to it.

Hey OP you can find these awesome tools to go through archives from here:

Rather than asking some of these questions here for a quick answer, op can likewise search on the Internet like the Google for Bitcoin terminology and many information would be available for him to see and use if he planned using the for something else.
We have so many Bitcoin and cryptocurrency terminologies and I think new ones had been added recently which would be more understanding and easily to comprehend by op for any research work or educational stuff.

@OP if you are done learning the Bitcoin terminology and want to take a better understanding of Bitcoin technology, you can try to attend online courses about Bitcoin.  If you want to understand the Bitcoin program, you need to learn the programming language used to create Bitcoin (I think it is C++) and there are plenty of free C++ programming language courses online.  You can also try to read the discussions in Development & Technical Discussion  and if you have technical questions in mind you can put your inquiry on Bitcoin Technical Support.  While if you intend to know more about Bitcoin mining, you can check the Mining board of this forum.

There are plenty of resources to know about the terminology and technology of Bitcoin.  All you need to do @OP is just to put your search activity active.
