To yarn over after a purl stitch, first complete the purl stitch as usual by bringing the yarn in front of the needle. After you've finished the purl stitch, bring the yarn over the needle from the back to the front, positioning it above the needle. This creates a yarn over, which will be a new stitch when you knit the next row. Remember to maintain consistent tension to ensure your yarn overs are neat.

This means to work the stitch to the last step but not complete the stitch. You would leave the last loop on the hook. For example, if you are working a double crochet: yarn over, insert hook in stitch, yarn over, pull through, yarn over, pull through two loops, stop there and move on to your next instruction. If you are to work another dc into the next stitch, you would yarn over as though to finish the stitch, but instead insert hook into next stitch, yo and pull through two loops. If you are to complete the stitch, yarn over and pull through all loops on hook. If you are to continue holding back, you would not complete the second double crochet, but instead yarn over and insert into next stitch, and so forth. You can repeat this as many times as instructed.

It means decrease a stitch. You do this by putting two stitches together by leaving the last loop of a stitch open and completing it with the next stitch. For example, to decrease using single stitches: Insert hook, yarn over, pull through (so far, a normal sc), yarn over, and pull through only one of the loops on hook. Then, leaving the two loops on the hook, insert hook into next stitch, yarn over, pull through, yarn over, and then pull through all loops on hook. This can be done with any stitch, simply leave one loop of the stitch on, then on the next stitch pull through all loops.
The following is the American meaning of double crochet. The British system would call this stitch a treble. A British d.c. is an American single crochet. Double crochet is one of the three basic stitches of crochet: chain, single crochet and double crochet. To make a double crochet: 1. Put the working yarn over the hook (this is called a "yarn over"). 2. Insert the hook in the next stitch in the row below. 3. Yarn over again and pull that yarn over back out through the stitch. There are now three loops on the hook. 4. Yarn over again, and pull that yarn over through the first two looks on the hook. Two loops remain on the hook. 5. Yarn over again, and pull that yarn over through the remaining two loops. When you finish a row and turn, start a row of double crochet by first chaining three stitches. This chain-3 counts as the first stitch of the row. For a single crochet, chain only one to start a new row.
In knitting, "yb" stands for "yarn back." It indicates that you should bring the yarn to the back of the work before making the next stitch. This technique is often used in patterns to create certain stitch effects or to prepare for a subsequent stitch, such as a yarn-over or a decrease.
To decrease (dec) over a stitch in crochet, you typically use the "single crochet two together" (sc2tog) method. Insert your hook into the first stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop. Then, insert your hook into the next stitch, yarn over again, and pull up another loop, leaving you with three loops on your hook. Yarn over once more and pull through all three loops to complete the decrease.
