Goban
Goban (碁盤) is the Japanese Go Term for go board.
Although the term is generally recognized and used by Western players, many English speakers avoid it, preferring instead the native English go board, or simply board. Goban is widely used, however, in other languages, including French and Dutch, which may not have such convenient native terms.
Some people use goban, incorrectly, to refer specifically to a Japanese go board with legs. (In Japanese the word indicates a go board of any shape or form.)
