    Me: "Looking good, Room. Been working out?" Room: "Yes. Cardio twice a week, and yoga on Thursdays".

      Great. They changed the translation to narrow. The room is not slender anymore.

        I think it's the same as a narrow room-but they didn't choose the best terminology, did they!

              Do you know which is the "root" of the adjective? For instance the root of mzuri is -zuri, if I'm on the right path.
