This paper focuses on a system of the two‐dimensional (2D) magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations with the partial kinematic dissipation ( ∂ y y u 1 , ∂ x x u 2 ) and the partial magnetic diffusion ( ∂ y y b 1 , ∂ x x b 2 ). Based on the basic energy estimates only, we are able to show that this system always possesses a unique global smooth solution when the initial data are sufficiently smooth. Moreover, we obtain optimal large‐time decay rates of both solutions and their higher order derivatives by developing the classic Fourier splitting methods together with the auxiliary decay estimates of the first derivative of solutions and induction technique.
