Nobody has said specifically that I think.

number of moves=ply? depends on the definition. A ply is a half move. And a move
can be understood as a half-move or two half-moves, altough especially when one
say "x number of moves" one is referring to 2*x half-moves.

I speak spanish myself. And numjug seems to be "nĂºmero de jugada", or "number of
move". In spanish we have "movida" and "jugada" too, meaning the same, I
think...
