'''Naki''' {{kana|鳴き}}, or "calls", are legal claims on an immediately discarded tile. When an opponent discards a tile you can claim, you can call it to add it to your hand. Upon claiming a discard, the player's hand is then considered ''open''. An open hand is unable to call [[riichi]] and is unable to score yaku like [[menzen tsumo]]. In addition, some yaku decrease in value after opening. However, opening the hand can allow you to complete it faster.
