what does these words mean & what should i do?

For this user you should set the shell to be or csh or tcsh, because it will
make your life a lot easier. Almost all of the examples for configuring the
environment are in the form of C shell commands, so if you set your shell to
bash or any other shell you will have to translate all the settings from C
shell to your shell.

thank you

i am not sure about that, i am also a newbee in linux.

but it seems that you have to use C type shell (csh or tcsh) .
you can check your shell using the following command:

ps -p $$

csh and bash are very similar, especially when you're a user, not an adm.
