To myself... You cannot truly call your self a web guru if you can't even explain the parts of a URL.
URL is one of the fundamentals to learn in web development. It stands for uniform resource locator. The browser uses a URL to make a request to a server (a kind of resource) for some information. Without URL, it's going to be impossible or even messy to locate a resource in the vast ocean of the internet.
Components
Basically, a URL is composed of 4 parts
scheme
identifies the protocol to be used to access the resource
host
the host name that holds the resource
path
the specific resource in the host (a host can have multiple resources)
query
filter/s to retrieve the desired resource
Illustration
I have included other nuances of a URL for my own reference
