It takes the signals out of the air and delivers sound and pictures for further processing. In the case of a computer, to the computer screen and speakers. So you can watch TV and or capture images and sound.

The strict definition would be that it's a receiver that picks up television signals over the air, just like traditional TV set hooked up to an antenna does. However, it hopefully also means that you can plug that device with a "tv tuner" into a cable or satellite TV system & receive audio/video programming that way too.

a t.v. tuner is a other word for the dial that is used to change the t.v. channels on your t.v. ( duh)

Imagine your cable coming in with all the channels. a tuner selects the one channel you want. Signals through the air are the same, they all come in to your 'tuner' that selects a narrow band of signal that carries your channel. In the old days it really was a 'tuner'. It was a dial you turned the same as a radio dial. You would 'tune in' your channel. Hence the saying "stay tuned!"
