Windows 10: Netstat

Netstat is extremely confusing, it starts with the average small length of connection lines and then it expands into almost two sentences! It even has weird names for domains. It's extremely odd and all the "see if your computer is hack" barely explains how they find the suspicious connections.If anybody could explain a little more indepth, it would be nice. Thanks.

netstat error message

Hello,

I have a Windows 10 laptop computer.

When I go to the command prompt, and type in netstat, I get a list of protocols, Local Addresses, and Foreign Addresses.

But when I type in netstat-n or netstat-a, I get an error message that says:

"is not recognized as an internal or external command,"

Am I doing something wrong here?

Thank you.
