What words do you not understand?

from memory, and bearing in mind that i have not actually even finished the prologue yet (so if these are explained in the first page of chapter one, please forgive me) :
- whuffie
- HUD
- dead-heading
- jaunting
- grepping
i'm relatively confident that the meaning i've inferred for some of them from context is pretty close, but it's approximative, and i would appreciate accurate definitions of them regardless.
i may have more to add to the list, as i keep reading.
thanks !
would you recommend i read a different one first ? if i've understood correctly, this is his first novel, which is why i decided to start there, but i could still switch to a different one...
