FMnobobyreally,
It is about a chess term called "en passant"...I don't know what it means.
But there is a mathematical expert on this thread who speaks fluent French.
I think he has a thread somewhere on this site called "Vectoranalysis, and it's use in the ortho-diagonal quadruple rook sacrifice manuevre".
Please consult him for a translation.

En passant is translated literally, as "in passing".

Thanks,Ericchess.
Well, that's it then. We have the translation.
So, it seems like that is the logical place to wrap up the discussion for now.
I look forward to resuming this most lively of conversations...in seven days.

Thank you very much for your service, but it is not necessary, as I understand French.

Diagonal line segments AC and BD are orthogonal, lol.
We were talking about moves on a chessboard. So I talked about the rook-moves (not the bishop), in relation to the files and rows on the board.
Now be quiet and go and stand in the corner and consider what you have done. We will let you know when you can come out.
AND, you STILL completely missed the point I was making. But don't blame yourself, I blame myself for not using >500 words to explain it to you.
Sorry Syd. Just had to. Won't happen again.
This thread is DEAD.
Even in relation to a constained orthognal coordinate system (the rows - files of the chess board), any linear rotation of this coordinate system will be orthogonal. In the special case of a 45 degree rotation, as the bishops move, this also will create a new orthogonal system.
It seemed you did not understand the term completely. I hope our discussion has helped you pick your words better in the future.
Alas, the misunderstandings in the world! How much trouble would be saved if there were no misunderstandings! Like about the en-passent rule!

@TeraHammer and FMNR,
Could you guys please go duke it out on your own thread?
I'll even name it for you: "Grudge Match! See FMnobodyreally take on Monsieur TeraHammer in the Vectoranalysis Definition Throwdown of the Century!!!"

Constained? Orthognal? En-passent rule? WTH? Making up new words now, are we?
Sure, in the case of a 45 degree rotation. Which is not the case here. So totally irrelevant. You're wrong. Learn to live with it. End of story.
No misunderstandings here, just not-understandings.

Because I can't count that high.
But you can count to 127 ? You make no sense, amigo.

Your custom made trophy will arrive in seven days from the post you just made.
Please don't post here again, or it will reset the clock, and will result in a posible disqaulification of your new status as "The Thread Killertm".
Wtf? He gets the trophy that's clearly mine?
