The spinning of Earth around its axis is called rotation
Revolution or rotation

The earth spinning on its axis
TIME TAKEN FOR THE EARTH FOR 1 rotation i.e spinning on its own axis : 24 hrs n 1 revolution i.e spinning around the sun : 365.24 days
The rotation of the earth describes the spinning action of the earth on its axis. That is what gives us night and day.
Basically the tilt of the axisThe spinning of the Earth on its axis is the cause of day and night. it takes approximately 24 hours for any point on the earth to directly face the sun twice.A combination of the tilt of the Earths axis and its orbit around the sun is responsible for the seasons.

The rotation of the Earth is called as the spinning of the Earth in its axis.
Yes, the earth does spin around its axis. That's what causes the apparent movement of the sun and the stars. If your question was rather what spinning on its axis mean? Ever saw a sphere spinning? It means that.

Earth's Rotation
In addition to rotating on its axis (spinning), our earth also revolves around the sun (orbits).
Rotation
Rotating (spinning) on an axis is what Earth's rotation does in creating day and night.
The Earth spins about its axis. That defines the Earth's axis. It is the axis of spin that is tilted. If the Earth were not spinning it would not have an axis.
It's axis.
The Earth rotates on its axis, and it revolves around the sun. Rotation is the same as spinning, and this is what a top does, or a coin that has been set spinning on its edge on a table. In the case of a coin spinning on its edge, the 'axis' goes right up through the flat dimension of the coin.
