Imagine the whole of Second Life being made from Lego blocks. A prim is the equalivalent of a single Lego piece.

 

A script is a short piece of software that controls a minor task, such as turning a light on or off, making a prim bigger or smaller, giving the user a notecard, creating a cloud of mist ... and so on.

Scripts don't just control minor tasks. Essentially anything other than an avatar that moves, communicates, gives items from one person (or object) to another, accepts L$, or changes appearance is controlled by a script.
