  Difficulty: Beginner   Keywords: Go term

Up: towards the center of the board. See High?.

Down: towards the edge. See Low.

Consequently,

  • to descend means making a move towards the edge
  • The central point on the board, Tengen is also referred to as heaven.
  • A move like ago, attacking a stone more towards the center, is attacking from below.

On the other hand, the upper side of the board is the side closest to white.
