	Chess strategy and tactics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A quite common situation is a white knight jumping to c7, thereby threatening both the rook at a8 and the king at e8.
		The German zwischenzug means "intermediate move"; it is a common tactic that occurs in almost every game: instead of countering a direct threat, which the opponent expects, a move is played which poses an even more devastating threat, often an attack against the queen or the king.
		Often it is necessary to throw the opponent's position or tempo out of balance by first sacrificing some material, sometimes to be regained with interest a couple of moves later.

	Zwischenzug - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In chess, zwischenzug (German for "intermediate move") is a common tactic that occurs in almost every game.
		Zwischenzug is where Player1 threatens Player2, and instead of Player2 countering the direct threat from Player1 (which Player1 expects) Player2 plays a move which poses an even more serious threat to Player1.
		Player1 must then counter the threat from Player2, which will ideally change the entire situation to Player2's advantage.

		Zwischenzug is a german term which translates to, "in-between move" in English.
		The Zwischenzug falls in between a series of moves, but not just any series of moves, ones in which the player falling for the zwischenzug feels the sequence is forced while his opponent demonstartes to him that it certainly isn't!
		Most common zwischenzugs involve threatening a piece or giving check so that the opponent is forced to respond, leaving you in the driver's seat.

	Chess tactic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The concept of zwischenzug is often listed as a tactic, but might properly be called a counter-tactic instead.
		The effect of a zwischenzug is to change the status quo before a tactic can come to fruition.
		Chess instructors usually steer beginners away from any detailed study of openings, focusing instead on tactics and endgames, which serve as the basis for later strategic understanding.

		Translation: "I adjust" A french phrase uttered by chessplayers while moving a peice, to adjust the chessboard, without making an actual chess move.
		That impression is incorrect, the vowel is the vowel of "fish".The word sounds more like [tsfishentsook], not real easy for an English speaker to pronounce, but practice a little and you should get it.
