@Poketalker: Did you think this should be changed to "hand of man" or something like that? — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 22:00, 10 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Justinrleung How do I redirect this specifically to Etymology 2 on the 人和 page? The dog2 (talk) 19:44, 15 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

@The dog2: There's no good way (for now) other than manually putting in the definition. Also, I don't know if we should have a separate sense for Singapore specifically. I don't know how to play mahjong, so I don't really know if it's specific to Singapore. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 20:04, 15 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Justinrleung: I'm mostly only familiar with Singaporean mahjong, but I have tried playing Japanese mahjong before and noticed some of the rule and terminology differences. For instance 地和 means different things in Singapore and Japan, and what we call 地和 in Singapore will be called 人胡 in Japan. From what I see here, 地和 in Singapore has the same meaning as in Cantonese mahjong, while Taiwanese mahjong uses the same definition as Japanese mahjong in this sense. Maybe RcAlex36 can comment on this since I presume he plays Cantonese mahjong. The dog2 (talk) 20:15, 15 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
