Haengma (행마/行馬) is a Korean word which means roughly the way the stones move, forward momentum. The term is used to describe various connections and their implications. Some connections are strong, but move across the board slowly (not gaining much territory[1]), while the faster connections are weaker.

The seven basic Haengma are:

Strong (but slow)

Average

Fast (but weaker)


SAS: Is this really what haengma means? I was under the impression that it means roughly the same as Japanese suji, which is much more general than what is listed above.

DJ: Seeing also the very, very interesting DynamicNatureOfShape, wouldn't it be better to say: not developing forward enough giving forward the widest possible meaning (of fast, too)?
