Letter in brackets means the keyboard shortcut.
At the bottom of the toolbar there's 4 textlines. The meaning of them is:
Number of vertices (visible vertices / total vertices). If the numbers are unequal, some of the vertices are hidden. Press H-key to bring the back.
Number of faces (visible / total). If numbers are unequal, press H-key to bring all faces back to visible.
Number of selected vertices
Number of selected Faces
