Good Idea:
In German:
King: K {"König")
Queen: D {"Dame"}
Rook: T {"Turm", Tower}
Bishop: L {"Läufer", Runner}
Knight: S {"Springer", Jumper or Leaper}
Pawn: B {"Bauer", Farmer}
In Russian
King: Kp {"Korol")
Queen: F {"Fers"} Not F It looks like a greek Phi (cannot type it)
Rook: C {"Slon", Elephant}
Bishop: L {"Ladja"}
Knight: K {"Kon", Horse}
Pawn: P {"Peschok"} Not P It looks like a greek Pi (read russian P as a R)
Anyone else?
