It means get the Player object that is linked to that Character. A Character is actually just the 3D model we recognize as players in-game, but, technically, the Player could exist without the Character. The Player holds important information like the userId, TeamColor, and more.

GetPlayerFromCharacter() will return the player associated with the character or nil if you give it something that is not a character.
For example
game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(game.Workspace.Player1) will return game.Players.Player1
