What do horizontal curves and vertical curves mean?

The horizontal curve is a curve on the plane, which is set where you need to turn, and it is related to the position on the plane. The vertical curve is vertical, that is, in the vertical section, and it is related to the height, that is, the height difference.

I can't post, I can't use terminology, and I'm sorry for my explanation. Four years in college, haha, I hope my colleagues don't laugh.
