From the Codex:
“A WordPress Plugin is a program, or a set of one or more
functions, written in the PHP scripting language, that adds a specific
set of features or services to the WordPress weblog, which can be
seamlessly integrated with the weblog using access points and
methods provided by the WordPress Plugin Application Program

Like an app, but for WordPress.
