Conjugation means changing the verb form to match the subject (people/thing doing the action), the tense (present, past, future, etc.) and the mood (indicative, subjunctive, imperative, etc.). For example to be in the present indicative is:
Yo soy - I am
Tu eres - You (singular, familiar) are
Él/Ella/Usted es - He/she/you (singular, formal) are
Nosotros somos - We are
Vosotros sois - You (plural, famililar) are
Ellos/ustedes son - The/you (plural, formal) are
Conjugation is when you change the end of a verb to match the number and person of the subject.
I talk - Hablo He talks - Habla We talk - Hablamos
In Spanish, every number and person has a different ending, unlike English, in which the only change is an "-s" in the third person singular.
I talk - Hablo You talk - Hablas He/She/It talks - Habla We talk - Hablamos You(plural) - Habláis They talk - Hablan
I don't know what you referring to about stuff, but you obviously know how to conjugate in english. It is pretty similar in spanish. In English it just involves changing the verb to reflect the subject, and is arguably easier in Spanish because all you have to do is change the ending not the entire verb. For example:
to be
I am You are he is We are They are
-Depending on the subject the same very changes,
In spanish the verb ser is to be.
Yo soy tú eres él/ella/usted es Nosotros somos Ellos/ellas/Ustedes son
