Major depressive disorder is depression that meets the medical criteria for depression (sometimes called clinical depression). Single episode means you've only had one round of it. In partial remission means you are improving and some symptoms are gone but not all of them (which is full remission).

Have you had mania or hypomania? That's needed for bipolar an usually once you have a bipolar diagnosis you don't have a depression diagnosis anymore because depression is part of bipolar.
