The following information is about Tempo.

Tempo Defined

As in music, time. Plural, tempi. In chess, there are basically three elements - space, time and material. Space and material are self-evident. Time, however, is more subtle. Initially, White, having the first move, has a time advantage (and thus, the initiative). But White can, by making useless moves, waste time. To make a wasteful move is to "lose a tempo." Over the board, tempi, space and material can be exchanged back and forth for one another.

This definition is in context to Chess. See more contextual defintions for Tempo.
