The original Czech expression rocháda mistakenly acquired French pronunciation with the letter ⟨ch⟩ pronounced as /ʃ/ (especially among non-professional chess players), which later (in the 1950s) lead also to the change of spelling to the letter ⟨š⟩ (rošáda). === Pronunciation === IPA(key): [ˈroʃaːda] Rhymes: -aːda Hyphenation: ro‧šá‧da === Noun === rošáda f (relational adjective rošádový) (chess) castling change of a person in a position ==== Declension ==== ==== Derived terms ==== ==== Related terms ==== === References === === Further reading === “rošáda”, in Příruční slovník jazyka českého (in Czech), 1935–1957 “rošáda”, in Slovník spisovného jazyka českého (in Czech), 1960–1971, 1989
