Best Answer

When you pawn an item, you receive a short-term loan in exchange for the item, which is held as collateral for a defined period of time, after which it becomes the property of the pawn shop. You may redeem your item by paying back the loan within the time limit.

In general practice, pawning a quick way to receive cash for property; however, the amount you receive is usually well below the value of the property.

Can a pawn take anyother piece in chess?

This is a special capture made immediately after a player moves a pawn two squares forward from its starting position, and an opposing pawn could have captured it as if it had moved only one square forward. In this situation, the opposing pawn may capture the pawn as if taking it "as it passes" through the first square. The resulting position is the same as if the pawn had only moved one square forward and the opposing pawn had captured normally. For more info, see Related Links, below.
