I'm unsure of what html5 is in terms of addition HTML or its own standard mark up language.

Its "just" markup, but people usually mean heavy use of javascript / <canvas> or <video> tags when mentionig HTML5.
e.g. some things traditionally requiring flash, can be done using html5
HTML5 is HTML strictly speaking, but learn it anyway as it encompasses HTML as there aren't that many new items in the new version
There is a free book for Kindle (which you can run on your PC/Android Phone/Kindle device) called What is HTML5. You can find it on Amazon (I am not allowed to post links at the moment).
This will give you an idea of what HTML5 is and where is placed.
Like most others, I would say learn HTML, do not worry about the 5 at the end.
Thanks for all the posts on this kind of thing. I too wish to learn web development to see how it goes for me. I really enjoy making the visuals of a site, it's fun.
