All the command you can use are provided by software package you installed on your Ubuntu. If you uninstall some software, you'll no longer be able to use it's commands. They are not provided by that Terminal thing. Terminal just create a window, open a pty device, redirect input/output of commands to pty device, and display it on the window so you can see it on your screen. So command argument is related to the software providing the command, not related to Terminal.

Almost every command has an associated manual page. Suppose the command verb is ls, then typing man ls at the command line prompt will give you that command's reference page.
The -t flag has no specific meaning across all commands. You will need to look at the man page for the particular command to find out what it does.
