White Lines: these separate lanes going in the same direction- if BROKEN, you can pass, merge, or cross over them. If SOLID, usually, shouldn't cross or pass over them.

Yellow Lines: these separate lanes going in different directions- If BROKEN you can pass or cross; if SOLID you shouldn't cross or pass over them.

Double Yellow with One Solid Line and One Broken Line: In this case, you can pass IF the BROKEN half of the line is on your side of the road. Otherwise, you can't pass over the line.

Make sure to check an official driver's handbook from your local DMV for more information on the variations to rules and the specifics of said rules.

Can you park on a grass verge when the road has double yellow lines on it?

The yellow lines refer to parking controls on UK roads. When double yellow lines are in force, you can't. (note that double yellow lines are not always operational at all times. The restriction prevents parking on or adjacent to double yellow lines. There is no mention in the regulations about which side of the yellow lines and therefore they are effective for vehicles parked on pavements or verges. Look at the Highway code text next to the pictures of double yellow lines in the Road Markings section.
