Terminology on Lichess

Can you please share terminology cencerned with the Lichess such as Takeback ...?
Thank you.
If you offer a takeback, you are offering to 'take back' the last half-move played; that is, to undo it.
You might try this when you accidentally click the wrong square. If your opponent accepts, you (or your opponent) will be able to play that move again.
Similarly, if your opponent offers a takeback, you need to accept too for it to happen.
If you don't want anyone offering takebacks (including yourself), you can disable them in the settings
Hahaha fair enough, "proposing" then

Really though, fuck everyone who disables them
'take back' means you can go back to any position, not only the last move.

I recently played a game playing white pieces.
Player with black pieces blundered
his queen and wanted a take-back.
Since I neither knew what take-back is,
nor would I win by this rule
(that particular critical game), so
how appropriate to have appreciated
and allowed a take-back.
