So objectively means in itself?Andy Stoker wrote: ↑Tue Aug 28, 2018 11:52 am"What does objectively mean in:
White's position is objectively lost in either case."
If the game was played out using "perfect" analysis, then white will lose - s/he is objectively lost. If strong computer plays strong computer, then white loses
However, some other factors might affect the result - for example, black might fail to see the correct continuation, black might get into time trouble and make a mistake ...

Objectively means "in a way not influenced by personal feelings and opinions. "

It is rather early to give a fr evaluation of the position.

Hi. What does it mean that
Plan B ( 1 0 points) has a point?
Plan B ( 1 0 points) has a point?
Plan B ( 1 0 points) has a point, as after 13 th4 l:b8 14 b3 g6 ! 15 tf3 ! .g4 16 td2 .g7 17 h3 .e6 18 l:fd 1Jd8 White can switch back to the right track
with 1 9 b4! +/=, but of course White has lost valuable time.

Yes, it can actually mean either of those things.

Re: The English Language
Need to see the context, but the target is probably the opponents King.

Re: The English Language
- Determine what is (are) the main, most signifcant target(s) and how the plan should be executed.
I should attack the e-pawns, starting with the one on e5 . This can be done by manoeuvring my minor pieces (by .fl and td2-c4) towards that target and also involving my queen via b5 or c3.
The e4-pawn is a target for the b7-
bishop.
I think that my d4-knight is actually not very well placed, as it has no targets
my main target is his king
my knight will fnd a nice target on b7.
I should fnd play on the queenside, where there are some fxed targets, such as the black pawns on a5 and b7.

Re: The English Language
Target has another meaning in English. In addition to its meaning as goal/aim/objective, it is also used in archery and shooting to refer to what the weapon is being aimed at. So a Bishop on b7 threatens to capture a pawn on e4, in other words setting it as a target.soheil_hooshdaran wrote: ↑Sat Sep 29, 2018 7:53 pmI am asking foe the definition of a target in chess , not the piece that is the target. Both target and goal and aim and objective are translated into "hadaf", in everyday speaking, and you can distinguish by the context. Here it will be misunderstood.

Re: The English Language
The target is the thing you are aiming at,or the main object in view which you are concentrating on. Maybe someone else can give you a better answer.

Re: The English Language
I thought target is just in a materialized form. Now that you say it can also be abstract, it is more confusing.Roger de Coverly wrote: ↑Sat Sep 29, 2018 8:11 pmTarget has another meaning in English.

So what about "After [...]White has targets."?
