You can count the stitches by looking at either the stitch post or the top loops of the stitch. Don't forget to count the beginning turning chains as a stitch.
You can tell how many crochet stitches you have done by counting the chains on the top of the stitch.
You can find the answer in the pattern, which will give you the count.
The basic stitches used to crochet are: slip stitch chain single crochet half double crochet double crochet treble crochet double treble shell pop corn
Turning chain. These are the stitches you make before you turn your work to begin another row. The number varies with each stitch. These stitches bring your work to the correct height before you make additional stitches. For single crochet that tch does not count as a stitch. For double crochet and all taller stitches, it does count as a stitch.

Yes they do. Usually in darker or neutral colors and with tighter, simpler stitches like single crochet and half double crochet.
That is a long stitch. Just count 4 rows down and insert your hook in the stitch in line with the stitch on your present row but on the row 4 rows down. You will have to work very loosely and pull up your golden loop so that your stitches on the present row remain even and your work doesn't pull in.
It usually means remaining, e.g. "dc in rem sts" means "double crochet in remaining stitches."
To skip the next 5, you count the next 5 and do not do any stitches in them. Just pass right over them and do whatever they tell you to do next.
To crochet using your fingers only, use the same procedure as when using a hook, but just use your fingers instead. You will end up using your forefinger as a "hook" holding the parts of the stitch on your finger, and "hooking" your finger to "draw through" the material to make the stitch. I would hazard that the "best" stitches to make using a finger crochet technique would be the shorter stitches--slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet. I think that with taller stitches, you might begin to not have room on your forefinger to "hold" the loops necessary to make the stitches. Look at the attached video link and see finger crocheting single crochet stitches is being done.
This varies with the yarn, the hook size and the tension. You have to make a sample, count and measure.
