because bouncing Midi to audio is not the same as exporting Midi to Audio isn't it!(?)

It is 100% one in the same 
The more you learn the more lingo/ terminology you will puck up as a result

Some more words - "mixdown" and "render", that mean the same as "bounce" ;-)

Indeed. Usually export is meant "outside of the sequencer" while bounce usually means "to a track" but the maths are all the same. It just depends what the company making the software think is a cool name.
Bounce is an older term coming from the tape world where one was limited in the number of available tracks. One would "bounce" part of the mix to new tracks to free some space for new recordings. For instance, if the drums are properly mixed and ready, they could be bounced to a stereo track thus freeing up all the tracks that were used for all the individual drum elements.
Export is a more modern term coming from the computer science side of things.
Render really comes from the graphical world. In some applications it just means "consolidate" as in "Consolidating different regions/clips into one region/clip". In some application it means the same as bounce.
In the end, they all do the same thing more or less.

COOL!
well, thise terms are familiar to me, as i have done some little courses, one of them was Audio Producer, but at the time i didn't think i had so many open questions, only now i am starting to close some doors to those questions!!!
to be honest i have learnd more since the time i been at home studying, looking at this forum etc..than i learnd in the three courses i have been.
lolol
Hey UnderTow, just an observation:
Based on the example you gave let's imagine you have 4 percussion instruments that just have been recorded, each one in it's track, when you are happy with them you bounce them to a single track(percussion), then open them again in the project, continue recording guitar, bass etc and then when you are finished you Export the final product(a single track).
That percussion would have been exported 2x. correct?
would that cause a slight decrease in quality?
