SQL is composed of five key components:

𝐃𝐃𝐋 (𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐃𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞): Commands like CREATE, ALTER, DROP for defining and modifying database structures.
𝐃𝐐𝐋 (𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐐𝐮𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞): Commands like SELECT for querying and retrieving data.
𝐃𝐌𝐋 (𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐩𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞): Commands like INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE for modifying data.
𝐃𝐂𝐋 (𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞): Commands like GRANT, REVOKE for managing access permissions.
𝐓𝐂𝐋 (𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞): Commands like COMMIT, ROLLBACK for managing transactions.

If you're an engineer, you'll likely need a solid understanding of all these components. If you're a data analyst, focusing on DQL will be more relevant. Tailor your learning to the topics that best fit your role.
