Lara of Lara's Mahjong Edit reading the NMJL card

Free guide · Part 2

Read a line,
left to right.

Part 2. How to read any line on the card, the tiles, then the parentheses, then the points, so it reads like a menu instead of a code.

What you'll get

  • 1Read it left to right. Tiles, then the rule in parentheses, then the points, with a worked example.
  • 2Parentheses = substitutions. What each line lets you swap, and why you read it first.
  • 3Colors, points, and runs. Same color vs different, exposed vs concealed, and how a run of singles works.
