There are a couple listings out on the web, let's do a nice merge.
Should be sorted alphabetically or somehow by topic? Table format appropriate, or just list in separate flowtext paragraphs with each term bolded?
Japanese | English | Explanation |
---|---|---|
ari | in effect | States that the preceding rule is used, as in akadora ari for playing with red fives. Opposite of nashi. |
nashi | invalid | States that the preceding rule is not in effect, as in kuikae nashi for disallowing players to call a tile and immediately discard another tile which would have also completed the called meld. |
shuntsu | sequence | Three tiles of the same suit in sequence, used as one of the four melds in a regular hand. Chii is used to call a tile to complete a shuntsu and set it aside as a minjun, i.e., an open shuntsu. A concealed shuntsu is an anjun. |
