??Clincher??

Hi.
I have been mountain biking for many years, although I am extremely new to road biking. I have become a little confused with types of tires. I have heard about clincher tires. Are these just standard tubular tires, like a mountain bike, but skinnier? Are there other ways of attaching the tire to a rim, or other types of tires?(for road bikes). I though I had heard of some other terms. Thanks for the explanations. It helps a lot.
