Q: 

Wondering if this code excerpt can represent a event listener...

Can we call this: $('#nomeInput').keypress(function(){ //code here... an event listener?

Thanks.

Yes. The function you pass to the keypress method is an event listener.

I believe the precision calling even listener not to the all code, but to the function is passed onto keypress makes the difference to my newbie eyes...

at least jQuery does ... so I would say YES

Well... it says: "Bind an event handler to the "keypress" JavaScript event, or trigger that event on an element."Can we presume that, bind an event handler is adding a event listener?

yes we can ... a "listener" is a prerequisit for a "handler"
