The king is said to be in check.To get out of check, the opponent must either (1) capture the checking piece, (2) interpose a piece between the checking piece and the king, or (3) move the king out of check.

Yes, it can, as long as it doesn't put the king in check. PS, it's "capture", not "kill".
Do you have to say check when you are in target with a king in chess?
Yes. If you have your opponents king under threat, you have to say check. If you have their king in a position to take it and they have no move left to save it, you say checkmate.No, you don't have to say check or checkmate. I used to play in USCF tournaments and we never did.

In the game chess can a king move to a square next to another king?
If by moving up to a square, you mean an adjacent square, yes, as long as the square is not threatened by any opposing piece. This is the only way a King can attack another piece. A King cannot enter any square that is attacked by an opposing piece, i.e. place himself in check. He also cannot castle across an attacked square (king's bishop 1-f1, or queen 1-d1), but it does not matter if the rook or queen's knight squares are attacked, because he does not cross or land on those squares. He cannot castle out of check.
Can a checker player jump over his king with another one of his kings to jump opponents piece?
