The Earth doesn't wobble around its rotation axis. The rotation axis itself rotates,
so that the Earth's poles trace around a 23.5-degree circle in the sky, every 26,000
years. The term that describes it is "precession".

axis
Earth is tilted from it axis
That's "rotation".
Rotation
The earth rotates on its axis.
Each spin of the earth is called a rotation of the earth on it's axis.
The Earth makes one complete rotation on its axis every day, which causes day and night to occur.
it never stops spining. One complete rotation of the earth on its axis is called ONE DAY
The turning of Earth is called rotation. Earth rotates on its axis, which takes approximately 24 hours to complete one full rotation. This rotation is what causes day and night.
one complete on the earth's axis is known as a rotation
a complete rotation of earth on its axis takes about 24 hours, this is the length of a day.
The time required for the Earth to rotate once on its axis is called a day. This rotation takes approximately 24 hours to complete.
Once, it is in a synchronous orbit with Earth
a day
That period of time is called a " sidereal day ". That's not the period of time for your clockor wristwatch to make a complete rotation.The earth's rotation is 23hours 56minutes and roughly 4seconds.
24 hours. This is called a "solar day". Well, to be precise, exactly one rotation of the Earth is 23 hours 56 minutes. This is called a "sidereal day", or a day with reference to the fixed stars. The Earth is moving at about 67,000 miles per hour in its orbit, so it takes the Earth another 4 minutes to spin around to have the same alignment with the Sun as the previous day.
During each complete revolution around the sun, the earth makes 365.24 rotations on its axis.
