The term that is not a recognized method of checkmate is **"Fork mate."**
The other three terms, **Back rank checkmate**, **Smothered mate**, and **Fool's mate**, refer to specific ways to achieve checkmate in a chess game. A "fork," on the other hand, is a tactic where a single piece attacks two or more of the opponent's pieces at the same time, but it is not a checkmate technique.
