Tricks for NAT terms?

I'm confused with the NAT terms and i want to ask if anyone out there has their own way of conceptualizing the terms. In my notes I have the following.

Inside Local Address: An address of a device on the local network, expressed using its normal local device representation.
Inside Global Address: This is a global, publicly-routable IP address used to represent an inside device to the outside world.
Outside Global Address: An address of an external (public Internet) device as it is referred to on the global Internet. This is basically a regular, publicly-registered address of a device on the Internet.

So, basically:

Inside Local Address: Sender's address as seen by the local network
Inside Global Address: Sender's address as seen by outside network
Outside Global Address: Receiver's address as seen by outside network (not sure of this one)

Confusing. Please explain using simple terms!

Inside: Anything you control
Outside: Outside of your control.

Local: Before NAT, Locally Significant. Private Addresses. "Tracert 10.0.0.1" in windows to find out that it's blocked by your ISP.
Global: After NAT, Globally significant. Addresses that were handed out for the internet

Ie:
Inside Local Address: Locally Significant Address. Usually a private address. (192.168.0.1)
Inside Global Address: Global Significant Address. Private Address turned into the Internet Address. (192.168.0.1 turned into 12.0.0.1)
Outside Global Address: Global Significant
