It's "Zwichenzug" genius. Just stop trying to speak German. No bratwurst for you.
ed1975's got it, "Zwischenzug". In my experience, most Zwischenzugs are when a knight or a bishop that was doomed anyway unexpectedly takes a pawn.

that's Desperado not Zwischenzug.
I would say 'Desperado' moves are a subset of Zwischenzug. Not to be confused with:
The number of attempted spellings of 'Sicilian' in tournaments is also amusing.
No @gingerninja2003, a desperado is when your opponent attacks one of your pieces and you leave it right there on its square hanging because you have a hopefully greater threat to make.

No, a desperado is when youre knight is trapped so you make a move with it like capturing a pawn because youre gonna die anyways so you might as well capture a pawn and for your opponent to double their pawns.
What you described is just danger levels.

Maybe, but taking a piece with a doomed piece is still desperado you can search it up if you want
