Any (n,m) direction?[edit]
I've only ever seen the term "hippogonal" used synonymously with "knightwise", that is, moving (1,2). The knight is thus a hippogonal leaper, the mao a hippogonal lame (blockable) leaper, the nightrider a hippogonal rider, etc., but the camel, a (1,3) piece, is not hippogonal at all. The link to CV.org's Piececlopedia seems to agree with me. I've seen "oblique" used for any (n,m) where 0<n<m, but is the use of "hippogonal" with that meaning documented anywhere but in Wikipedia? — Gwalla | Talk 23:46, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
Wikipedian pronunciation[edit]
Please make my added pronunciation of hippogonal into Wikipedian form.
