Your understanding is quite correct.

Though I have also gathered good statements from the web, This is what it means:

SQL

SQL (Structured Query Language) is a standardized programming language that is used to manage relational databases and perform various operations on the data in them.

The uses of SQL include modifying database table and index structures; adding, updating and deleting rows of data; and retrieving subsets of information from within a database for transaction processing and analytics applications.

MySQL

MySQL is a freely available open-source(Backed by Oracle) Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) that uses Structured Query Language (SQL)

phpMyAdmin

phpMyAdmin is a free and open-source tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL with the use of a web browser. It can perform various tasks such as creating, modifying or deleting databases, tables, fields or rows; executing SQL statements; or managing users and permissions.

Cheers!!
