Explanation

En passant (French for 'in passing') is a special pawn capture rule in chess. When a pawn moves two squares from its starting position and lands beside an opponent's pawn on the same rank, that opponent can capture it as if it had moved only one square. This capture must be done immediately on the next move or the opportunity is lost.
