Argomento: Re: Re: Translation of Cancellor and Archbishop into German

andreas: Nice idea but all existing German notations are derived off the first letter of the piece name. I'm not an expert in chess history to find the reason for this but I think we should comply in some way with the traditional system. At the moment this is not an issue as there are no official German Tournaments running and to be honest in traditional chess I'm more familiar with the English notation than the German anyway. Ideal would be piece names having 'A' and 'C' as their first letter I think. This would satisfy everyone I guess except professional translators of course :-)
