So I´ve read though the listening techniques again, and the only thing that I don´t understand is this exercise:

If you are practicing chords. The step by step approach is:

1) In your mind say the chord. i.e. minor triad, major seventh.
2) Play the chord in broken form. Root to highest note and back down to root.
3) Play chord harmonically.
4) Repeat step 1.
5) Mentally replay the broken chord in your mind.
6) Check by playing the chord back in broken form.
7) Repeat step 1.
8) Mentally replay back chord harmonically as heard in step 3.
9) Play the chord on your guitar to check yourself.

What´s a minor triad? I only think of chords in F major and so on..

What´s a broken chord and a chord played harmonically?
