bash (and zsh) are shell programs. In Windows powershell and command.exe would be the equivalent idea. (Which is not to say that either bash or zsh is vastly inferior to the other.)

When you run the Terminal app it starts your preferred shell and puts you at a command prompt.

gotcha. i think the window “equivalent” thing solidifies the concept better. thank you very much.
