The '''French Defense''' in [[chess]] is an aggressive counterattack by black against the standard 1.e4 ("King Pawn") opening by White.

This French Defense consists of the following:
:1. e4 e6

With this 1...e6 move black bolsters its a2-g8 diagonal, which can otherwise be a weakness. But this has a defect in trapping the black queen's bishop.

This French Defense is the second-most popular defense by black, after the Sicilian Defense, in response to the often-used 1.e4 opening by white.<ref>https://www.thechesswebsite.com/french-defense/</ref>
