Arcade drive means having one axis on your controller for forward/backward movement and one axis for turning left/right, either on a single joystick or split across two.

Tank drive is having two joysticks with independent control over each side of the drivetrain. So pushing forward on the left joystick in a tank would make the left side go forward, turning you right and vice versa with the right joystick. Pushing both forward would make you go forward, pulling on both would make you go back, one forward one back would make you spin in place, etc.

..... snip .....

As mentioned by others, the use of arcade drive using one joystick for turning and one for movement is known as Cheesy Drive.
