Atekomi
   

Atekomi is a play aiming to cut a diagonal play. That is, it creates a cutting point from the opponent's diagonal.

Diag.: atekomi

So Black here is atekomi (something like 'inside aim').

There are some cases where atekomi is a hard-to-find tesuji. Normally of course White can simply connect as an answer, so such cases must depend on some factor like shortage of liberties.
