What are the names of tennis strokes?

Answer:
There is a regular forehand, then a top spin forehand (top spin spins the ball forward which makes it drop in the court faster), a slice forehand ( slicing spins the ball left, right, or back) , a volley ( a small slice where the ball didn't touch the floor), a overhead ( pretty much slam).
The backhand has all the same strokes except maybe backhand overhead.
