Contrary to popular belief, the original game of Checkers rule pamphlet does not state that you must take a jump.
Yes, backwards (or backward) is an adverb. Example: He walks backwards. It can also be used as an adjective. Example: That's a backwards way of doing things.
Yes, a single piece can jump a king … in a game of checkers in the United States of America. But this is not the case in Italy. In the Italian version, a king legally can be captured only by another king.
You must jump if the opportunity presents itself in a game of checkers. The rules specify that captures are not optional. Any capture that may be made must be made in checkers.

Only a king can move in any direction in checkers. All other pieces can only move forward.
no
a king can move backward
No, the kings just allow you to go backwards (which in my opinion is very fun).
In the game of checkers, a kinged pawn may be moved like a normal pawn, but can move in any direction, forwards or backwards, side to side, as long as the move is diagonal. ----InfoMac
the kings in checkers can jump twice in checkers when the checker piece is on the other side of the board
The king or Queen (depending on what you call it)
Yes you can. but first you have to become a king in checkers by going to the other side.
