What's the difference between definition and declaration in C++?

Question

And can I call parameter a variable?? What's the difference between reference and variable?

Answer 1

Declaration of a variable is for informing to the compiler the following information: name of the variable, type of value it holds and the initial value if any it takes. i.e., declaration gives details about the properties of a variable.
Whereas, Definition of a variable says where the variable gets stored.

no, you can't call a parameter as variable.

Variables are kinda label for the memory that stores the actual data. Pointers stored the address of the variables.
References are alias for the variables.
