I describe a version of so-called naive dimensional analysis, a rule for estimating the sizes of terms in an effective theory below the scale of chiral symmetry breaking induced by a strong gauge interaction. The rule is simpler and more general than the original, which it includes as a special case. I also give a simple qualitative interpretation of the rule.
