A pawn by itself with no other pawn on its side to move up to protect it is called an isolated pawn.

In chess, a backward pawn is a pawn that is behind the pawns of the same color on the adjacent files and that cannot be advanced without loss of material, usually the backward pawn itself.
You can sacrifice a pawn but the rules do not allow for a player to surrender a pawn . The pawn must be captured in accordance to the rules of chess .
When promoting a pawn in chess, it stays the same color it was to start with.
The Pawn can then be promoted to any chess piece other than the King .
In the game of chess, a pawn is a 'man' (piece) of the lowest value, therefore if you say someone is just a pawn means his place is not important in the scheme of things. It also implies that he has been manipulated. When Oswald was arrested after President Kennedy was shot in Dallas, he claimed he was just a "patsy" or fall guy; he could have said, "I'm just a pawn."
A pawn can take any oponents piece
