SQL = database
database is a collection of data that is organized in a manner that facilitates ease of access, as well as efficient management and updating.
A database is made up of tables that store relevant information.
For example, you would use a database, if you were to create a website like YouTube, which contains a lot of information like videos, usernames, passwords, comments.

It gives you an idea on how data is stored, organized and manipulated. Also, it is pretty common syntax-wise, disregarding the actual SQL flavor. So it is beneficial to at least learn what can be done with a relational database (rows&columns).
Most programming languages have a rsther easy access to Creation, Reading, Updating and Deleting the data inside an SQL database. It is really handy to know how to do it :)

you need to have an idea about the database manipulation operations and allow for the basic operation of the said database. so you have to understand SQL.
