    Suggest you learn SQL first if you don't already know it. Learning the basics and building blocks always helps and will be useful in the future.

    Transact-SQL (T-SQL) is microsoft's and sybase's proprietary extension to sql. SQL, often expanded to Structured Query Language, is a standardized computer language that was originally developed by IBM for querying, altering and defining relational databases, using declarative statements. T-SQL expands on the SQL standard to include procedural programming, local variables, various support functions for string processing, date processing, mathematics, etc.

    SQL is a language used to communicate with relational databases. It defines operations for inserting, deleting, retrieving and updating information organized in tables. It is also used for managing databases. Although there are standards for SQL, such as ANSI SQL92 and SQL99, most databases use their own dialect and/or extentions. Microsoft's flavor of SQL used in SQL Server 7 and SQL Server 2000 is called T-SQL.

    http://www.tsql.info/ is a good site if a) you already know SQL and b) you have at least a little experience with T-SQL. It doesn't teach T-SQL, it's just a bare language reference. http://www.tsql.info/sql.php is a good bare SQL language reference, but neither one is a tutorial.

    If you dont know anything about Query language, best to go with SQL first. Learn the basic, the core foundation, and get used to the logic.

    After you master that you can decide to go deep to T-SQL, MySQL, etc. The query/syntax is a little bit different among the language, however the logic is the same.

    Its just like saying "hey buddy" in some countries and "hey mate" in some others. The idea is the same.

    If you are really serious and want to become expert buy a good book or subscribe to those online video tutorials, it is worth. Download and install the SQL server and get your hands on it, there is free edition. Then after a while, test what you learn here http://www.sql-ex.ru/tsql . You'll become expert in no time.

    T-SQL( Transact-SQL) is the procedural programming language or (procedural) extensions for SQL used by SQL Server. So if you are strong with your SQL basics then you will easily learn T-SQL. So i would like to suggest you to go firstly with SQL, then T-SQL..
