My 1st language is French, but I've learn to play chess using ressources only in English (books, YT videos, etc) I already know most of the terms in French already but I can't find anything about light and dark square bishops. I know bishop is fou but I usually say : le fou des cases blanches which seems wrong and people look at me with a strange face when I say it out loud haha

How do you say 'pinned piece' in french?

kcinnad95

We say the piece is "Clouée"

The pin itself is called "clouage"
