 [[Image:Dora and Wanpai.jpg|thumb|350px|Dead wall  (with topmost tile of the first column set aside) showing 2-pin as the dora indicator.]]'''Dora''' {{kana|ドラ}} are special tiles; each dora in your hand grants 1 [[han]]. However, '''hands still require at least one [[yaku]] in order to score'''. Dora do not count towards the yaku requirement, so they are best considered as a bonus.
-At the beginning of every hand, fourteen tiles are set aside as the dead wall tiles. One dead wall tile is then flipped over. The tile sequentially after the flipped tile is considered dora. Additional dora may be revealed through [[kan]], known as '''kandora'''. Also, hands that declare [[riichi]] may score extra '''uradora'''.
+At the beginning of every hand, fourteen tiles are set aside as the dead wall tiles. A tile in the dead wall is flipped over, and the tile numerically after the flipped tile is the dora. For example, if 2-pin is flipped over, then 3-pin is the dora itself. Additional dora may be revealed through [[kan]], known as '''kandora'''. Also, hands that declare [[riichi]] may score extra '''uradora'''.
