+'''Tanyaochuu''' {{kana|断幺九}}, usually abbreviated to '''tanyao''' {{kana|タンヤオ}}, is a [[yaku]] scored when the hand only has numbered tiles 2-8. In other words, the hand cannot contain [[terminal]] tiles (1 and 9) or [[honor]] tiles. While it is cheap, tanyao is one of the fastest and easiest yaku to obtain.
 The tiles numbered from 2-8 are classed as '''chunchanhai''' {{kana|中張牌}}, or [[simples]]. Therefore, this hand may be referred to as "'''All Simples'''" in English.
