What is have it in mind by bit,byte,bite and word? what is relationship next to this ?

Your discussion about binary...

A single digit of a binary number is a bit.

A byte is 8 bits

A bite is 4 bits (half a byte)

A word is 2 bytes

so, the same again, within binary



0

00000000

0000

00000000 00000000



It's been a while, I hope I get it right.
well a bit is the most adjectives type of measurement of space on computers byte is the subsequent and megabyte gigabyte so on so forth but the explanation for nibble is harder so not a hundred percent give you the wikipedia relation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/nibble...
Knute is 75% right.



A word actually depends on which CPU you are conversation about. In a 16-bit CPU approaching 8086, a word is indeed 2-bytes. However, in a 8-bit CPU approaching 8008, a word would be a byte, and in a 32-bit CPU resembling Pentium, a word would be 4 bytes.



However, 80x86 was so adjectives, people started defining a word as 2 bytes. So technically it isn't wrong... it freshly isn't always right.
