Internal DOS commands are those provided internally by cmd.exe:

BREAK, CD/CHDIR, CHCP, CLS, COPY, CTTY, DATE, DEL/ERASE, DIR, EXIT, LOADHIGH, LOCK, MD/MKDIR, PATH, PROMPT, RD/RMDIR, SET, TIME, TRUENAME, TYPE, UNLOCK, VER, VOL, VERIFY.

External commands are those provided by separate executables.

An external command in MS-DOS is one that is not built into the command interpreter (COMMAND.COM) but rather is launched by running a different program. For instance, EDIT is an external command, while ECHO is not.

Internal commands are commands that are built into the command shell. In other words, those commands are loaded in memory and cannot be deleted through ordinary means. External commands, in contrast, are files stored in a directory, and when called, are executed as a normal program; these commands live in the installation directory for MS-DOS (e.g. C:\DOS), and may be deleted or renamed.
