Wikipedia
The Convert or Try, in American and Canadian football, is a one-scrimmage down played immediately after a touchdown during which the scoring team is allowed to attempt to score an extra one point by kicking, or two points by touchdown. The play may also be referred to as a conversion, extra point, point after touchdown (sometimes abbreviated as PAT), or point after. If the convert is attempted by kicking, if the kick goes through the uprights, the team gets an additional one point for their touchdown, bringing their total for that score from six points to seven.
