Yep, it is just a plain old butt connector. Join the two wires together and see what happens.
Ohms is a measurement of resistance. One way to do a quick check is to touch the two terminals of the ohmeter together and look at your reading. That is a perfect circuit with little to no resistance. Now check them again on the item being tested. If you are testing a connection, it should be similar to what you got when you touched the two wires together. If you are testing something like an incandescant lightbulb, there will be a resistance....that's what causes it to glow. If there is no movement of the meter, then you have an open circuit or in the above two cases, a bad connection or a burnt out lightbulb.
You do not have to apologize or make excuses for not knowing this Bob. That is why electricians, furnace repair guys, and mechanics can charge $100 plus an hour for their services.
