+Nzari+, or Nzadi, “great river,” applied to the river Kongo (Zaire)
and its tributaries.

+Nzenza+, said to be the proper name of the river Mbengu, and is also
the name of several districts, as Nzenza of Ngulungu, the chief
place of which is Kalungembo, 9.2 S., 14.2 E. _Nzenza_ means
river-margin; _Nzanza,_ table-land.

+Ouuando+, seems to be a region to the N. of Encoge and the river
Loje. Rebello de Aragão, p. 20, calls it _Oombo_ (Wumbo) and says
the copper mines of Mpemba are situated within it. J. C. Carneiro
(_An. do cons. ultr_, ii, 1861, p. 172) says that the proper name
is _Uhamba_ (pronounced Wamba) _or_ Ubamba. Dapper calls it
_Oando_ (pronounced Wando). Rev. Thos. Lewis tells me that the
natives pronounce d, b, and v quite indistinctly, and suggests
_Wembo_. He rejects _Ubamba_ as a synonym. From all this we may
accept Wembo, Wandu, or Wanbo as synonymous. _See_ Wembo.
