Originally posted by CenterNutWhen I search for Zugzwang in the German-English section, I get two results, one of which is "Zugzwang (Schach) ("Schach" meaning "chess) - zugzwang, compulsion to move." And believe me, there's nothing wrong with the spelling.
you didn't read the whole page..
when you search for zugzwang
1 similar result for Zwichenzug
Zwischenzug {m} in-between move
it doesn't even give a defintion for zugzwang...
WHY!!
cos it isn't spelt correctly
yep im wrong sorry.. 😉
but im also english and know no other languages..
This thread should be titled Zwichenzug then becase thats what I wanted to know.. I learnt about this move from the chessmaster tutorials he pronouces both words practically the same.. sorry I thought they was same thing.. but I've done few searches now and they're different.. I already knew about zugzwang moves just wasn't aware it was called that till I went though the chessmaster tutorials..
and when I searched http://dict.tu-chemnitz.de searched for both words and got same result..but now has changed.. I dont know if somebody added new definition as we was talking in this thread.. but now its changed.. for some bazaar reason..
plz note Nut.. is short for Nutter = crazy person heheh 😀
<Most of the problem with this thread is that centernut keeps talking and not listening whilst people try to tell him the same thing over and over and centernut keeps saying the same thing over and over while he has his fingers in his ear~!
ugggggghhh!

Zwichenzug is an inbetween move in a combination, often a check. Edit: According to that blog, it can also just be a waiting move.Just in case anybody doesn't know what to believe yet:
Zugzwang is a position where a player has only bad moves, and would love to pass if he/she had the option.
I'm German
and the quote above is correct except for the spelling: Zwischenzug!
