'Ruz' can also have the sense of 'particular' or 'particularly' in rhetoric.
Noun:
As a noun, 'ruzyn' refers to the value, worth or importance of something, either in terms of credits or in terms of more abstract value.
Verb:
As a verb, 'ruzyn' is an intransitive pali verb which takes an absolutive subject, the entity in which value inheres. On it's own, it works just like ruz to describe a noun, except it makes the statement of the importance of the subject the point of the utternace instead of extra information. In addition, more information can be introduced periphrastically. For example, a monetary value in credits could be introduced with the null preposition.
