-'''Furiten''' {{kana|振聴}}, meaning '''sacred discard''', is a particular rule associated with the tile discards. Unlike many other mahjong variations, the [[discard pile]] for Japanese mahjong is specifically arranged in front of players.  Likewise, [[naki|tile calls]] have specific arrangements to point the source of these discarded tiles.  The main purpose is the enforcement of the '''furiten rule'''.  Basically, the player in [[Tenpai|tenpai]] is furiten if winning tiles are present in one's own discard pile or other player's discard pile, barring certain conditions.  Players in furiten may still win by tsumo, but not by ron.
