- 1080p refers to the resolution on the image in horizontal lines (in this case 1080 horizontal lines of resolution)
- 240Hz refers to the refresh rate (aka how often the screen fully refreshes the image) of the display. Hz (pronounced "hertz") basically means cycles per second so in this case the image refreshes 240 per second.
Television signals are defined by the number of lines, the field rate and whether the picture is displayed in a single field or two fields.
1080 indicates that the signal has 1080 lines, making it an HD signal.
The "P" shows that it is a progressive scan. This means that the image is constructed in a single pass starting at line 1 through line 1080. Other signals are interlaced meaning that the image is constructed from two fields. The first shows odd numbered lines and the second shows all the even numbered lines. Interlaced signals are shown by an "I" instead of a "P".
The field rate in the signal is 24 fields per second. This is an unusual rate and indicates that the original content was produced on film which captures 24 frames per second. The most faithful way to reproduce film content is to retain the original frame rate rather than convert it to 50 or 60Hz field rates. Although 24 fields will not be seen on broadcast signals, it is possible to use them from DVD, Bluray and other computer generated signals such as games consoles.
So, a 1080p 24Hz signal is a high definition signal originally mastered on film.

What is better a 1080p 120hz or a 1080p 240hz?
1080p 240hz is the better choice, the numbers 120hz and 240hz are the speeds in which the picture refreshs itself. Which means 240hz is going refresh 240 times per second which is twice as fast as the 120hz models.
