I decided to make a list to help you if you are learning Hindi/want to know chess terms in Hindi. Hindi is the national language of India, yet there are surprisingly few resources available, especially on chess. 

  • Checkmate - शाहमात 
  • Chess Board - शतरंजी 
  • Pawn - प्यादा
  • Bishop - ऊंट 
  • Queen - रानी / महारानी 
  • King - शाह/ माहाराज 
  • Knight - घोड़ा 
  • Rook - रुख/हाथी 
  • Check - शाह 
  • En Passant - प्रसंगवेश 
  • Stalemate - गतिरोध 
  • Draw - ड्रॉ 
  • Pieces-मोहरों/ टुकड़े 
  • White-सफेद 
  • Black-काला 
  • Blunder - बलन्डर/भूल करना 

That is a list of all the most common chess terms in Hindi. Let me know if I should add more. Good Luck!
