Draughts is another name for checkers.
A chess (or draughts) board.
A draughts board has 64 squares in an 8x8 configuration. 32 black or dark squares and 32 white squares.
"Draughts" can mean: 1. Drinks. People have been drinking forever, it wasn't invented. 2. Breezes that get through walls, doors and windows. They weren't invented either, they just happen. 3. The game also known as checkers. Its invention is lost in antiquity.
The game draughts is also known as checkers.
Checkers (in the UK and other countries outside of the US spelled usually chequers) are coloured squares in a pattern of alternating light and dark squares, as in a checkerboard or chess board. It is also the name of a game played on such a board (customarily 8 squares by 8) also known in the UK as draughts, using flat discs which are also called checkers.
Don't know if I have the context right but, in the UK, draughts (pronounced "drafts") is the game known in the USA as checkers.
