Yes, you will create a temporary magnet. EX: if you put and nail next to an iron magnet, the nail will be temporarly magnetic.

How does ferromagnetic apply to permanent magnets?

A permanent magnet is an object made from a material that is magnetized and creates its own persistent magnetic field. An everyday example is a refrigerator magnet used to hold notes on a refrigerator door. Materials that can be magnetized, which are also the ones that are strongly attracted to a magnet, are called ferromagnetic (or ferrimagnetic). These include iron, nickel, cobalt, some alloys of rare earth metals, and some naturally occurring minerals such as lodestone.

Why does a magnet only stick to things made of iron or steel?

It doesn't. It's just that those are the two ferromagnetic materials you're most likely to run into. A magnet will stick to nickel or cobalt just fine (note that US "nickels" are mostly copper, which isn't ferromagnetic).
