What's the difference between 'attack from White's pieces' and 'attack by White's pieces'?

Thanks in advance

If there is a difference it is very subtle:

Black is now under attack by White's pieces. (A current, actual attack is being described.)

After three moves you can expect an attack from White's pieces. (The attack has not happened yet. This is a more abstract type of description, since the attack is conjectural rather than actual.)

By the way, this is incorrect spacing:

Attack(chess)

and this is correct spacing:

Attack (chess)

I mention this because it is a frequent small mistake of yours.

Yes, thanks for editing. This is also the case in Farsi.
I also need an editor for my book, if you take on the responsibility.
