Komoku
   

komoku is the 3-4 point on the board, like 'a' and 'b' in the diagram below. It has a very rich history in Go literature as it has been the most common opening play in the corner throughout the classical and modern periods of Go in Japan. It is the subject of volume 1 and volume 2 of the most popular joseki dictionary in English.
