From Wiktionary: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/zuri

(Note: zuri means "white" in Basque) =)

Nzuri=good. Mzuri=good [person]

Where is the different between mzuri and nzuri? When I lived in Tz I was taught nzuri.

i said good well

mzuri is an adjective e.g. 'good person' - in which 'good' refers to the person. nzuri is an adverb and refers to the action - e.g. 'I'm doing well', in which nzuri refers to the action 'doing'

I'm not sure if this is correct but this is my interpretation.
