A halter is a object that is put on the horses head to lead around and when it is in the paddock. There is a part that goes over the head and a piece over the nose. It will be be of leather,cotton.......
Basically, yes. English style bridles are used for a variety of sports including 'over fences' or jumping.
Yes, Western and English bridles differ greatly. For one thing, they have completely different uses. For another thing, there are many types of English bridles, all used for specific events. Western bridles are pretty close to each other, although some do differ. English bridles are very complex and have many straps and different bits or reins. Western bridles are mush simpler, and do not have nose bands or chin straps. Some have throat latches, but many don't. I could go on forever listing the differences, but I'll just leave it at that.
A halter and lead rope. the halter goes on the horses head and the lead rope is the thing you hold.
A halter and lead rope. The halter is a thing made of leather, rope or other such material, and goes around a horse's head. The lead rope can be clipped onto the halter to allow easier leading.
Neither; you use a lead rope, a rope that clips to the horse's halter (the thing that goes on its head).
There are two things actually. 1-a halter 2-a lead rope
Often when you try to tie up a horse and they spook frequently, we use a thing called a breakaway halter. This halter is designed for the horse to spook and the halter to give into the horse. Usually normal halters will not break from a horse's struggle, and will result in the horse hurt and/or the fence you tied it to broken. But breakaway halters will release the horse and the halter isn't broken permanently. Some people believe if you let a horse breakaway without a consequence they will try it every time to get out of work. Others believe horses only breakaway due to a true spook and don't want their horses hurt.
The cost of a bridle can vary. I have a nice one that I bought for $35. They range in price - some can be hundreds of dollars depending on the designer and leather quality. It depends on what you want to spend. I prefer to get a good quality one, which might cost more because it has better leather and will last forever. It depends on what you are using it for, too. If trail riding is your thing than you won't need an expensive one, But if you do showing and or pony club you might as well spend the money.
There are special safety release halter designed for this purpose. If the horse gets caught on something and pulls, part of the halter will break and the horse will be able to pull free. Safety release halters are safe to keep on in the pasture. Any other type of halter is not. Horses can easily get caught up and, being pray animals with a strong flight instinct, panic and hurt themselves. We have left regular halters on any horse we feel is a flight risk for decades and have never had an issue. I feel it is safe and a reasonable thing to do, if you believe the horse could escape. Having said this, leaving halters on for extended periods of time can cause other health issues. You need to make sure the halter is clean and the horse does get some time with no halter on.

If you're talking about what you lead them with, it's called a lead rope. This is attached to the bottom part of the halter usually under the horse's chin.
Over long distances, you need a trailer and a truck to hitch it to. To just lead a horse, a halter and lead rope.
