hahaha, good one!

You can break down the FX side into:

BGs: Background ambiences, also called "atmos" in the UK
Hard FX: doors, guns, cars, doors, phones, whooshes, hits, etc
Foley: Footsteps, props (keys, plates, hand pats, gun mvt,etc) basically the "sound of people doing something" can't remember who described it like that, and cloth mvt.

Of course there's more, but that's the basics
Hope that helped, good luck!

best,

Joe
