When it comes to foreign trade, what is a tariff?

A tariff is a tax on imports and exports. But. what does this mean? How does it work? What does it mean if an import is taxed? What does it mean if an export is taxed?
If you place a tariff on imports, everytime someone brings a foreign good into the country, they need to pay a tax. Export is the reverse; people pay everytime they bring local products into foreign markets.
