'MUSHRIKEEN' is the plural of the word 'MUSHRIK' and  'MUSHRIK' is one who commits 'SHIRK'

WHAT IS SHIRK?
Shirk literally means partnership, sharing or associating, but Islamically it refers to the act of assigning partners to Allaah in whatever form it may take.
 
Allaah has attested grave importance to the topic of Shirk in the Qur'aan,

"Surely Allaah will not forgive the association of partners (Shirk) with Him, but He forgives (sins) less than that of whomever He wishes."

[Soorah an-Nisaa, 4:48.]

Because the sin of Shirk denies the very purpose of man's creation, it is to God the gravest of sins; the unforgivable sin.

If the above point is clear we shall discuss the main ways in which Shirk can occur in the areas of
  1. Ruboobeeyah (Lordship),
  2. Asmaa was-Sifaat (Divine Names and Attributes) and 
  3. 'Ebaadah (Worship).

Waiting for your response Insha Allah.

DOES THE NONE BELIEVERS UNDERSTAND WHY THE MUSLIM CALL THEM KUFFAR? A BELIEVER IS ONLY ALLOWED TO CALL A NON BELIEVER A KAFIR, ONLY WHEN CERTAIN QUESTIONS ARE ASKED ABOUT THEIR WORSHIP. KUFFAR IS AN ARABIC WORD WHICH MEANS TO COVER, AS FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHEN THE HAQQ (TRUTH) IS BRAUGHT TO THEM THEY OPEN HEARTEDLY DENY IT. NOW LETS GET TO THE TOPIC AT HAND (SHIRK) THE WORD COMES FROM THE WORD MUSHRIKEN, NOW FOR THOSE GOD CONCIOUS PEOPLE  WHO CALL THEMSELVES BELIEVERS, THIS QUESTION IS FOR THE CHRISTIANS, JEWS, HINDUS,CATHOLICS,BAPTIST AND ECT.
