How to Use Chess Notation | Chess Video Lecture | Learn to Play Chess: From a Novice to a Fierce Competitor - Hobbies

hi my name is Rebecca taxman with chess
NYC then I'm going to show you how to
quickly use and write down chess
notation so to start we have our white
side and our black side it is important
that as a chess player that you could
you write down both moves both white and
black if you just write down your moves
not going to be so helpful so let's
start first move let's say white makes
is e4 now we don't write pawn efore we
just write E with a lowercase letter as
we can see here four by writing e4 we
know that it's a pawn has been moved now
let's say black makes a move and it goes
they go e5 so we write e5 say the next
move that white makes is knife f3 so now
we need to use our capital n f3 and
let's say black goes knight c6 so nc6
now let's say white brings out its
Bishop Bishop b5 and you notice here how
I have a capital B for the bishop a
lowercase B for the square and then the
number for this square black then
proceeds in plays Knight f6
Knight f6 now I know that this night
didn't go to f6 and that it's this night
because it's night cannot go to f6 so I
don't have to worry about which night
I'm moving in this case now let's say
white decides to capture so we would
have Bishop captures X knight c6 and
then black decides to capture back so we
instead of writing pawn because he has
to capture back with a pawn we would
write d7 captures Bishop c6 and then
that is shown by this now let's move
down a couple moves a bunch of moves
have been played and it is now black
white decides to castle so white decides
to Castle kingside
to show that we do 0-0 and now black has
a choice black can either decide to
Castle kingside
or Queen side so let's say black decides
to castle plain side again we move the
key to spaces one two bring the King
rope to the other side and we show that
by 0 - 0 - 0 now let's proceed we moved
a bunch of moves forward and there's
pieces that are taken off the board lots
of things happened and
let's say now white is ready to bring
its pawn to the other side and promote
to a queen white decides to go f8
becoming a queen and it is a check so
let's figure out how to write that we
have our pawn goes back moved from f7
moves to f8 equals Q for Queen and since
it is a check we put a plus sign for
check this game is far from over but
these are just the quick basics on how
to record your chest notation
