@laforce49 It's amusing (not in a bad way) linguistically-speaking. I grew up in a French-Canadian household but was speaking predominantly English. "Placed in check" is just one of many "loan" words and expressions that Canadian French assimilated over the past centuries (since "échec" normally means a "failure" and "check" is a borrowed interpretation).

I was just musing about my youth and how the French adopted an English word despite the fact that the sport has its foundings in Canada.

Aweye mon Jonathan, continue de parler Français parce que c'est la plus belle langue au monde ;)

[laforce49]

I just found out (from another YouTube video!) that Jonathan grew up in Winterpeg (sorry...I'm Canadian, too!) He's got perfect French! Good for him...
