De

B1 is a push through.

[Diagram]

Degiri

Typically a push through is responded by White, and a cut by Black follows. See push cut.

[Diagram]

Tsukinuki

If White tenuki for some reason and Black plays B1 on a subsequent turn, the move is called a tsukinuki ツキヌキ (penetrate through). White is in bad split shape.

[Diagram]

Yurumeru (verb)

When degiri above is too severe, White may allow tsukinuki by defending one side (W1 is yurumeru in Japanese). Marked white stones are probably sacrificed.
