Tiles numbers 2-8 are designated as "simples".  Its converse, the 1 and 9 tiles plus honor tiles, is grouped as the terminals and honors.  So, in order to form a hand with tanyao, players simply discard the terminal and honor tiles.  Given the range of the simple tiles, the number of tiles available to form this yaku is a wide range.  This availability makes this yaku a particularly fast one to develop.  It is even faster, when used in open fashion.  Although, some rules [[kuitan|may vary]], which disallows the use of tanyao for open hands.
