Honitu {混一色) is a standard yaku. Normally translated as a "half flush", this yaku features a hand composed of one suit mixed with at least one honor group of tiles and/or pair.
Tile pattern
Formation
Detection
A player's discard 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. 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.
Of course, honitsu is not compatible with chinitsu. Honitsu requires honor tiles, where as chinitsu does not.
