I'm looking for the Esperanto terms for the following concepts of Mahjong (the 4-player game, maĝango in Esperanto):

  • Run: A sequence of 3 consecutive tiles of the same suit.

    From left to right: 1-2-3 of characters, 4-5-6 of circles, 7-8-9 of bamboo

    Runs, from left to right: 1-2-3 of characters, 4-5-6 of circles, 7-8-9 of bamboo

  • Triplet: 3 of the same tile

    From left to right: 8 of characters, 1 of circles, 3 of bamboo

    Triplets, from left to right: 8 of characters, 1 of circles, 3 of bamboo

  • Suit: Same concept as seen in card games, in the above examples some tiles of the character, circles and bamboo suits were shown.

I'd translate run as sinsekvo or sekvenco, triplet as triopo, and I'm not sure if emblemo works well for suit. I haven't found these words on the Wikipedia article of maĝango.

How could run, triplet and suit be translated in Esperanto?

Krom tiuj aranĝoj, ekzistas versioj kun grupoj de kvin, ses, ... (ekzemple la usona versio).

Do, por havi koheran etendeblan terminaron, mi sugestus:

duo / paro / duopo (speca, tipa, emblema)
trio / triopo
...

Se temas pri aranĝo en kiu ordo gravas, oni povas prunti el pokeraj terminoj:

sinsekvo / sekvenco (tripeca, kvarpeca, ...)

Aliaj ebloj aperas en tiu ĉi klarigo pri la ludo, kiu uzas strekojn por la nomoj, ekzemple:

kvar-unu-speca

  • Dankon! Kaj rilate al la vorto "suit" mi trovis ke en eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hispana_ludkartaro "emblemoj" estas uzata Commented Oct 24, 2022 at 15:07
  • Jes, kaj Vikipedia artikolo pri emblemo kaj la difino por emblemo en PIV klarigas la terminon kiel "ĉiu el la kvar specoj de ludkartoj, signitaj de aparta emblemo" (el PIV). Commented Oct 25, 2022 at 6:33

The 'pips' or symbols on playing cards are 'emblemoj'. So if a 'suit' is a set of symbols, that should be 'emblemaro'.

  • I understand the word emblemaro being a set of suits. In Mahjong this could be some set of tiles with characters, circles and bamboos. In other words not limited to just one emblemo. Commented Oct 25, 2022 at 6:29
