  I don’t know exactly what the phrases are, I’m very new to this. I would like to start a website using the themes provided.
  I have a host for the domain name but haven’t a clue what I’m doing.

  // ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
  /** The name of the database for WordPress */
  define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘www.thetravellingmime.com’); <—IS THAT RIGHT?

  /** MySQL database username */
  define(‘DB_USER’, ”); <—IS THIS THE USERNAME I USE ON THE HOSTSITE?

  /** MySQL database password */
  define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ”); <—WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE?

  /** MySQL hostname */
  define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘UKHost4u’); <—PLEASE TELL ME I GOT ATLEAST ONE RIGHT

  /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
  define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’); <—NOT AT ALL CLEAR ON WHAT THAT IS

  /** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
  define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”); <—DEFINATE NO IDEA
