Here is an short explanation of how to read the notation used to record games:
White, being first, makes the move on the left, then Black makes the move on the right.
The last two letters of a move are the coordinates of the destination of the moving piece or pawn.
If the move is just one letter and a number, a pawn is moving there.
The capital letter, if there is one, stands for King, Queen, kNight, Rook, or Bishop.
An x represents a capture,
so x = ' takes'.
+ = 'check - your king is in danger'
