Frs: Does a Japanese, English or animal Go term exist for Black's shape or/and ?
Sebastian: How about "Mammoth"? For Chinese, I'd propose "猛傌", pronounced "mengma". (This would mean mammoth, if the second character were "獁". By replacing it with the old character for "knight in chess" - which is pronounced the same way - it now reads "fierce knight".)
