Legato is an Italian word which literally means "tied together". In music it means that the notes should be played or sung in a smooth and connected manner. It is the opposite of staccato which means that the notes should be played or sung in a detached and unconnected manner.
The phrase is "lip syncing." Sync is short for synchronization, which means to operate in unison. This refers to mouthing at the same time the music is playing.
The melody is what most people call the "music." In modern music, the melody refers to the main idea, usually the lyrics, of a piece of music. A harmony, typically background vocals and/or instrumentation, is usually added to a melody.

Monophonic means one instrument playing a single melodic pattern. Therefore, any solo piece would be monophonic. However, if there is an accompaniment, the texture would be homophonic or heterophonic. This means all the parts move together (homophony) or two instruments play the same melodic pattern but in harmony (heterophony). Most classical era music was melody dominated homophony, because most commonly a violin/violins would play the melody, and it would be accompanied by double basses, cellos and various other woodwind instruments.
Homophonic music really refers to music that has a strong melody and accompaniment structure. It can be chordal (like chorales and traditional hymns), or melody with broken-chordal or waltz-like accompaniment. The number of parts may vary - you can have anything ranging from a solo piano work to a symphony in homophonic form - but what's important is a part that shows the melody and another that strengthens the harmony.
