The word Move has different meanings in Go:

groups "move" on the board, when they are enlarged by a play. Here's an example for "moving group":

The black group moves

The diagram shows the black group moving. Although its individual stones do not move from their position, the group is said to move up towards the center.


On SL you can find many pages about moves. Do a search now.

Go players have many terms for different moves, just like Inuit have many words for snow.
