People seem to use {nu} or {ka} a lot of times when {zu'o} would be more useful. At least my understanding is that {zu'o} has a {ce'u} place, as "giving" {lo zu'o dunda} and "receiving" {lo zu'o te dunda} are certainly two different activities.

zu'o is a subtype of nu, which is a general abstractor for events. nu unites/stands in for pu'u, zu'o, mu'e and za'i. It saves you a syllable and the trouble of picking the right one of those four or of having to narrow it down. If zu'o had a ce'u, then so would nu.

Shoot. Looks like I've been totally misusing it.
