Hi. Regarding the following air path routing, request breakdown of the various segments and explanation of everything. I am not a pilot, so layman level terminology would be appreciated. Thank you.

Skyvector.com will plot that on a map and you can then look at what each point means.
Register a free account and then simply copy and paste that list into the flight plan field.

Thank you for your suggestion. That site is a bit beyond me. I don’t know what units it wants speed and altitude in.
You don’t need to enter a value for speed or altitude. The website would only use these entered values to calculate an Estimated Time Enroute (ETE) which would be useful for creating a Navigation Log or when filing a flight plan.
As @SweetPea11 has indicated, you could copy and paste that route string into the Route box on the Skyvector website and it will show you where those waypoints are located on a generalized map, even without entering a value for speed or altitude.
But if you wanted to try and enter those values, it would be speed in knots of true air speed (TAS), and altitude in hundreds of feet above mean sea level. This route looks like something that would be flown by a jet with some decent range, so try something like 480 knots TAS for speed, and 370 (370 x 100 feet = 37,000 feet) for initial cruising altitude.
Where did you get this route string from anyways? The -CAN, -PAC and -EUR suffixes that are attached to the airway identifiers are unlike any international flight plan format that I have seen when piloting all over the world.
Thanks for explaining that.
I’m currently on a boat in the Drake Passage south of Ushuaia and internet is a bit iffy and the whales and seals are more interesting.
