1)[line 1]בור שבין שתי חצירותBOR SHE'BEIN SHTEI RESHUYOS- a pit in no-man's land between two Chatzeros (neither Chatzer has an opening into the area)
2)[line 2]מוציא זיז כל שהואMOTZI ZIZ KOL SHEHU- each Chatzer may extend a projection (of minimal width) [from the wall to the pit] (this is necessary only as a reminder that if the Chatzeros used this area, an Eruv would be necessary in order to draw water from the pit)
3)[line 4]קניאKANYA- a reed (which is even less visible)
4)[line 5]דשמואלהיאD 'SHMUEL HI- this teaching was learned from Shmuel. Rav Yehudah learned Torah from two teachers, Rav and Shmuel.
5)[line 6]אין אדם אוסר על חבירו דרך אוירEIN ADAM OSER AL CHAVEIRO DERECH AVIR- a person's use of the airspace of one domain does not prohibit someone else from using that domain on Shabbos (it is not considered a shared domain). This means that one's use of the airspace (that is, a "horizontal" use of the area, such as throwing into the area or passing into it a distance of four Tefachim or more, as opposed to a purely "vertical use" such as lifting something up or placing something down) is not considered a significant enough usage to prohibit others from using that area, and therefore even a reminder is unnecessary.
6)[line 7]ודשמואל מהיכאUD'SHMUEL ME'HEICHA- The Gemara at this point is not aware that Rav Yehudah's ruling regarding a pit between two Chatzeros was a quote from his Rebbi, Shmuel. The Gemara's answer is that from the fact that Shmuel allowed even a projection as a reminder, his student Rav Yehudah inferred that this is not specific to a projection but that any minimal object may serve as a reminder. Some reminder, however, is necessary.
7)[line 12]דאפיקD'APIK- that he stuck out a piece of wood
8)[line 23]שני בתים ושלש חורבות ביניהםSHNEI BATIM V'SHALOSH CHURVOS BEINEIHEM- two houses sandwiching three abandoned ruins in a row. Each one of the ruins has serious breaches in its walls such that from his window into the ruin closest to him, the inhabitant of each house can throw an object into the ruin farthest from him. Each has an advantage over the other when it comes to the ruin closest to him, however, in that he can use the area just below his window through Shilshul.

b)[line 3]אחוי ליACHAVEI LEI- he showed it to him
10)[line 4]והא מר הוא דאמר...V'HA MAR HU D'AMAR...- Rebbi Eliezer understood that the reason why Rav forbade the inhabitants of the houses to use the middle ruin was due to the fact that each of them used its airspace (Adam Oser Al Chaveiro Derech Avir). He therefore could not understand why they should be allowed to use the ruins closest to themselves, considering that they were accessible to the other house through Zerikah. Although the closer house had the advantage of being able to use the area just below his window through Shilshul, Rav himself had said that one who has the use of an area through Shilshul as opposed to Zerikah is not granted the exclusive use of that area.

b)[line 7]כחצובהK'CHATZUVAH- as [the points made by the feet of] a tripod (see picture in Gemara). Rav explained to Rebbi Eliezer that he was of the opinion that Ein Adam Oser Al Chaveiro Derech Avir. The "middle" ruin in the case discussed lay not in between the other two ruins, but directly between the houses themselves. The reason why it was forbidden for both inhabitants to use this area was that they were both able to use it through Shilshul.
12)[line 10]מקום שאין בו ד' על ד' מותרMAKOM SHE'EIN BAH ARBA'AH AL ARBA'AH- an area whose surface area does not exceed four Tefachim in any direction (known as a Makom Petur (see introduction to Insights on Eruvin); such an area is Halachically dealt with like an airspace)
