A Crescendo looks something similar to this < It represents a gradual increase in volume!.

A Decrescendo looks like this > It represents a gradual decrease in volume!.

A Fermata indicates that a note should be held longer by specified, usually until indicated by the director/conductor to stop!.

Coda- Usually designates the end of a piece of music!.

Repeat- indicates that a verse or section of the music should be repeated!.

First Ending- I'm not exactly sure on this one!. XD

Dynamics indicate the loudness or softness of a piece!. They are usually represented by pianissimo (very soft), piano (soft), mezzo piano (medium soft), mezzo forte (medium loud), forte (loud), and fortissimo (louder)!. Although they can go beyond pianissimo and fortissimo!.

Some of these might be a bit hard to pick out just by hearing music unless you had the sheet right in front of you!. Things like fermatas are difficult to pick out just from that!. You could always try youtube and see a live production of the piece though!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Here's a good online music dictionary from NAXOS the classical music record label:
http://www!.naxos!.com/education/glossary!.!.!.!.

Dynamics refers to the volume of a musical phrase, crescendo is when the phrase gets louder, decrescendo is when the phrase gets softer!.

The other terms you have listed aren't necessarily musical, rather they denote on a piece of sheet music when to repeat certain sections, when to skip to the end, etc!. Those terms are like road marks on a map!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

You need the definitions!?

-Crescendo (This is when you slowly get fuller in sound)
-Decrescendo (To slowly get softer in sound)
-Fermata
-Coda
-Repeat (To repeat what you just sang/played)
-First Ending
-Dynamics (The fullness of your sound)Www@Enter-QA@Com
