plano corto / primer plano = close-up (shot)
primer plano = foreground
plano largo / toma desde lejos = long shot

As for the definitions, let's take people for example. If the picture/video is of a person's face, it's a close-up. If it contains the face and part of the body, it's a medium shot. If it contains the person plus surrounding landscape, it's a long shot.

Edit-- Mira lo que encontré. [Más información aquí: plano cinematográfico]
  • Plano panorámico o gran plano general (extreme long shot)
  • Plano general (long shot)
  • Plano de dos (two shot)
  • Plano figura (full shot / figure shot)
  • Plano americano (American shot / 3/4 shot)
  • Plano medio (medium shot)
  • Primer plano (close up)
  • Primerísimo primer plano (extreme close up)
