-A '''kyoku''' {{kana|局}} is one session of play (for example: East 2 Honba 0; South 3 Honba 1). A kyoku starts when tiles are dealt, and ends when a player wins a hand, when [[exhaustive draw|tiles run out]], or when an [[abortive draw]] occurs. They may be known as either "hands" or "rounds" (not to be confused with [[round wind|wind rounds]]) in English.
+A '''kyoku''' {{kana|局}} is one "hand" or "round" of play, such as East 2 Honba 0 or South 3 Honba 1. A kyoku starts when tiles are dealt, and ends when a player wins a hand, when [[exhaustive draw|tiles run out]], or when an [[abortive draw]] occurs. While sometimes referred to as rounds, they should not be confused with [[ba|wind rounds]] ([[ba]]).
 Kyoku are identified by the round wind, a number from 1-4, and the '''[[honba]]''' count {{kana|本場}}. East 1, Honba 0 {{kana|{{kyoku|E|1|0}}}} is always the first hand of the game.
