hey has any one heard of a move called en passent if so could u please explain

Sure. En Passant is not a new move (although it is the newest of the rules, it is still several hundred years old). It's a rule designed to prevent pawns from avoiding capture by using their two-square first move. It works like this: if you have a pawn on the 5th rank, and your opponent moves one of his pawns two squares so that it is on the square right next to your pawn (so your pawn could have captured his pawn if he had moved it one square), then on the very next move, you may take his pawn as though it had only moved one square. So if you have a pawn on e5, and he moves his pawn from d7 to d5, then on the very next move you can take his pawn as if it were on d6, and then your pawn goes to d6. But you can only do it on the very next move.
