Kurisei?

/phonetic/

1.

Informal “How are things on your side?”

Quick sense: “How’s it over there?” or “How are things your side?” A casual, peer-to-peer way to kick off convo, think Shona version of “Sup?” or “How you holding up?” When to drop it: voice note to your boy paJoza, random call to cousin stuck “kumapfanya”, text to bae who blue-ticked you since Monday.

"Ehhh bro, kurisei? Ndanzwa mota yakabondera."

Translation: "Hey bro, how's it going? I hear the ride crashed "
