Go Terms
    Keywords: Go term

A glossary of Go terms.

See also: English Go Terms, Chinese Go Terms, Korean Go Terms, Japanese Go Terms, and Terms In Dutch Go Magazine

[1] Actually Tewari is a way of analysing a position by changing the order of the moves, or by removing some (the same number) of B + W stones, so it is not exactly backward.


A [ext] Japanese/English translation page is available here (mostly in Japanese). If your browser supports it, you can see the Kanji for the terms, making it useful for attempting to study Japanese language go books.

A very comprehensive glossary on the web is [ext] Mehmet Dardeniz's site

The French Go club de Versailles has a very comprehensive list [ext] Japanese/French

Another one is on [ext] Ken Warkentyne's site - It looks like it's not been touched lately, but what's there is still good.

Well, if they don't touch it, and we can't touch it, let's merge it!

Scartol: I tried to put this question into MetaDiscussion, but I couldn't add any more lines (??). How do we feel about adding pronunciation for these terms? The English teacher in me would love to see them.

eg: hane (han-ay)

SAS: It's difficult to represent the pronunciations clearly (as your example shows). It may be better just to point people to [ext] this page, where they can hear the terms spoken.
