Honitu {混一色) is a standard yaku. Normally translated as a "half flush", this yaku features a hand composed only of honour tiles and tiles of a single suit. If the hand contains no honours, then the chinitsu yaku is counted instead.

Tile pattern

Agari: or

Bakahon

Bakahon 「バカホン」 is a slang term for a basic honitsu with open calls. For this hand, neither dora or other yaku are not complemented.

Formation

Detection

A player's discard pile may lack one particular suit. This may be an indicator of a honitsu hand being developed.

Compatability

Honitsu is aligned to a single suit. Therefore, this yaku is compatible with other yaku, that follows that pattern; and multiple suited yaku do not apply, namely sanshoku and sanshoku doukou. Naturally, the "single suited" yaku of ittsu can merge with honitsu, only if the fourth tile group is of the same suit or is a set of honours. Other yaku are able to function with multiple suits; but they are also possible using single suits, namely toitoi and sanankou. The same applies for chiitoitsu. Commonly, this yaku works with yakuhai, and likewise, shousangen.

Of course, honitsu is not compatible with chinitsu, because every chinitsu hand is honitsu. A honitsu combined with a tanyao would actually imply the chinitsu instead, since there would be no honours. It is also not compatible with junchan, as that would require the hand to contain only 1s and 9s of the same suit, which is only eight available tiles.
