Playing mahjong in English



      Summary: Mahjong is a strategic four-player game that originated in China and has since spread to many countries around the world, including the United States. This article explains the different rules and regulations of playing mahjong in English, from how to set up the game to how to calculate the final score.

      Mahjong is a classic Chinese game of skill, strategy and luck with over two thousand years of history. Its also known as Chinese dominoes or just mahjong. In the game, there are tiles adorned with Chinese symbols, and the goal of the game is to get the highest score by forming sets and combinations of these tiles. Playing mahjong in English is easy, as the basic rules remain the same for all variants.

      To begin, each player takes 13 tiles from the wall. These are kept hidden so the other players do not know which tiles the player has. The tiles are then arranged into five stacks, each containing three tiles. The 18th stack (or the last one) is left open. The game begins when an ‘opening’ tile is played from the wall.

      Once a tile is played, the player must draw another tile from the wall. To win, a player must form a winning hand either by making a ‘pong’, ‘chow’, ‘kong’ or by winning with the ‘last discard’. A ‘pong’ is a set of three identical tiles. A ‘chow’ is a sequence of three consecutive numbers within the same suit. A ‘kong’ is four of the same tiles. The ‘last discard’ is when a player is able to win using the last tile discarded by another player.

      Other basic rules include ‘calling’ a tile when you need it to complete a combination, discarding a tile when you no longer need it, resolving disputes with the dice and making ‘concealed’ sets or combinations. A concealed set or combination is one that is made without any of the tiles being exposed.

      Scoring for mahjong is calculated according to a system of points and bonuses. Points are awarded for each set or combination of tiles and bonuses are awarded for certain hands such as a ‘pure hand’ (a hand made entirely of tiles in the same suit) or winning with the ‘last discard’.

      The rules of mahjong may seem complex, but with patience and practice, it can be mastered in no time. Once the basic rules of mahjong in English have been understood, it will be easy to learn the variant forms of mahjong, such as Japanese and Hong Kong mahjong.

      In conclusion, playing mahjong in English is easy once the basic rules have been learnt. With patience and practice, anyone can become an expert in the game. Being familiar with the various sets and combinations, as well as calculating the final score, will make playing mahjong in English even more enjoyable.
