Haha! Quote: "When a pawn tries to sneak past an enemy pawn to avoid capture, there's a move of which many beginners are often unaware."
Thank you. Just to be sure: There are no more special rules except Casteling, Pawn Promotion and this "en Passant"?
Edit: And Stalemate. Another thing I had to learn here.

There's the pawn triangle rule. Once per game, if you get your pawns in a triangle shape, they can spin around and dissolve any pieces in their midst. The only bad part is that your pieces get dissolved, [NO COMMA] too.
Here's some practice sentences:
Directions:Rewrite the following sentences and note the grammatical errors that you fix. If there are no errors, write "no errors."
1. I ran with a baseball bat, and, I made it to first base.
2. Last Tuesday, I fixed the fireplace, hung some pictures, and painted the master bedroom.
3. Alex, Rod, and Susie, who are three good friends, decided to take a picnic, but they should have done their work on the farm instead.
4. To become a US Marshall you must pass rigorous training courses.
5. It's best to be remain silent, and thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.

Plus, if there's not enough mating material left on the board (cases where a perfect play wouldn't suffice to mate the worst play possible), the game will end in a draw (even if one of the players' time expires).
