Only a king can move in any direction in checkers. All other pieces can only move forward.
yes
In checkers, you cannot jump backwards over an opponent's piece. Jumps can only be made forward diagonally over an adjacent opponent's piece to capture it. However, once a piece is kinged, it can move and jump both forward and backward.
no in checkers you can only move diagnolly, but you have to move diagnally forward unless you are a king if that was your Q.
yes
No, the kings just allow you to go backwards (which in my opinion is very fun).
in Chinese Checkers, you can move any way you want. Yes, backwards too.

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
No, a non-king piece in checkers cannot jump backwards. Non-king pieces can only move forward diagonally and can jump over an opponent's piece in a forward direction. Only king pieces, which are obtained by reaching the opponent's back row, have the ability to move and jump both forwards and backwards.

Yes.
In draughts (checkers), standard rules typically allow pieces to move forward diagonally, but only kinged pieces can move backwards. When a piece reaches the last row on the opponent's side, it is crowned and becomes a king, enabling it to move both forward and backward diagonally.
If you can't move in checkers, you lose the game.
Yes you can. but first you have to become a king in checkers by going to the other side.
