Zeitnot

What is Zeitnot?


1.

A german chess word meaning time pressure, or literally "time emergency". If you are playing a timed chess game and you are very close to having used up your entire allowed time for the game, you have a zeitnot on your hands.

Even thinking about a zeitnot causes me to blunder :(
