Alphabet

ka 1. ka, the first consonant of the alphabet, and the first of the guttural letters, corresponding in sound to k in keep or king.
     kakāra ka-kāra, as, m. the letter or sound ka.
     kakāravarga kakāra-varga, as, m. the guttural consonants collectively.

ka 2. ka, kas, kā, kim, interrog. pron. (see kim and 2. kad, and cf. the following words in which the interrogative base ka appears, katama, katara, kati, katham, kadā, karhi, kā, &c.), who? which? what? In its declension ka follows the pronoun tad (Gram. 223) except in nom. acc. sing. neut., where kim has taken the place of kad or kat in classical Sanskṛt; but the old form kad is found in the Veda.

     The interrogative sentence introduced by ka is often terminated by iti (e. g. kasya sa putra iti kath-yatām, let it be said, 'whose son is he?'), but iti may be omitted and the sentence lose its direct interrogative character (e. g. kasya sa putro na jñāyate, it is not known whose son he is). ka with or without as, 'to be', may express 'how is it possible that?' 'what power have I, you, they, &c.?' (e. g. ke mama dhanvino 'nye, what can the other archers do against me? ke āvām paritrātum, what power have we to rescue you?). ka is often connected with a demonstrative pron. (e. g. ko 'yam āyāti, who comes here?) or with the potential (e. g. ko hariṃ nindet, who will blame Hari?). ka is sometimes repeated (e. g. kaḥ ko 'tra, who is there? kān kān, whom? whom? i. e. which of them? cf. Gram. 53. a), and the repetition is often due to a kind of attraction (e. g. keṣāṃ kiṃ śāstram adhyayanīyam, which book is to be read by whom? Gram. 836. a). When kim is connected with the inst. c. of a noun or with the indecl. participle it may express 'what is gained by doing so, &c.?' (e. g. nīrujaḥ kim au-ṣadhaiḥ, what is the use of medicine to the healthy? kiṃ vilambena, what is gained by delay? kim ba-hunā, what is the use of more words? kim pauru-ṣaṃ hatvā suptam, what manliness is there in killing one asleep ?).

ka ka is often followed by the particles iva, u, nāma, nu, vā, svid, some of which serve merely to generalize the interrogation (e. g. kim iva etad, what can this be? ka u śravat, who can possibly hear? ko nāma jānāti, who indeed knows? ko nv ayam, who is this? kiṃ nu kāryam, what is to be done? ko vā devād anyaḥ, who possibly other than a god? kasya svid hṛdayaṃ nāsti, of what person is there no heart ?).

ka ka is occasionally used alone as an indefinite pronoun, especially in negative sentences (e. g. na kasya ko vallabhaḥ, no one is a favourite of any one; nānyo jānāti kaḥ, no one else knows; kathaṃ sa ghātayati kam, how does he kill any one? More usually, however, ka is only made indefinite when connected with the particles ca, cana, cid, vā, and api, in which case ka may sometimes be preceded by the relative ya (e. g. ye ke ca, any persons whatsoever; yasyai kasyai ca devatāyai, to any deity whatsoever; yāni kāni ca mitrāṇi, any friends whatsoever; yat kiñca, whatever). The particle cana, being composed of ca and na, properly gives a negative force to the pronoun (e. g. yasmād indrād ṛte kiñcana, without which Indra there is nothing), but the negative sense is generally dropped (e. g. kaścana, any one; na kaścana, no one), and a relative is sometimes connected with it (e. g. yat kiñcana, anything whatsoever). Examles of cid with the interrogative are common; vā and api are not so common, but the latter is often found in classical Sanskṛt (e. g. kaścid, any one; kecid, some; na kaścid, no one; na kiñcid api, nothing whatsoever; yaḥ kaścid, any one whatsoever; kecit--kecit, some--others; yasmin kasmin vā deśe, in any country whatsoever; na ko 'pi, no one; na kimapi, nothing whatever).

ka ka may sometimes be used, like 2. kad, at the beginning of a compound. See ka-pūya, &c.

ka 3. ka, as, m. the Who? the Inexplicable, the Unknown. By a forced and erroneous interpretation of the interrogative pronoun occurring in a hymn of the Ṛg-veda (X. 121. kasmai devāya haviṣā vidhema, what god shall we worship with oblations?) the word ka is applied as a name to any chief god or object of worship, as Prajāpati, Brahmā, Viṣṇu; air or wind; the sun; the mind; the soul; Yama; Kāma-deva, the god of love; fire; a peacock; a N. of Daksha (a clever or dexterous man?); a knot, joint; the king of the birds; a prince in general; the body; time; wealth, property; sound; light, splendor.

ka 4. ka, am, n. (also regarded as ind.), happiness, joy, pleasure; water; the head, hair; a head of hair. (Perhaps this word has arisen from a far-fetched etymology of the word nāka, 'pleasure', i. e. na-a-ka, 'not-not-pleasure.')
     kaja ka-ja, as, ā, am, produced in or by water, watery, aquatic; (am), n. a lotus.
     kada ka-da, as, m. 'giving water', a cloud.

kam kam, ind. See 1. kam, s. v.

katama katama, as, ā, at (superlative of 2. ka; declined as a pronom., Gram. 236), who or which of many ? (e. g. katamena pathā yātās te, by which road have they gone?). katama is often a mere strengthened substitute for ka, the superlative affix imparting emphasis. Hence it may occasionally be used for 'who or which of two?' (e. g. tayoḥ kata-masmai, to which of these two ?). It may optionally be compounded with the word to which it refers (e. g. katamaḥ kaṭhaḥ or katama-kaṭhaḥ, which Kaṭha out of many?). When followed by ca and preceded by yatama an indefinite expression is formed equivalent to 'any whosoever', 'any whatsoever', &c. (e. g. yatamad eva katamac ca vidyāt, he may know anything whatsoever). In negative sentences katama with cana or katama with api = not even one, none at all (e. g. na katamac-canāhaḥ, not even on a single day, on no day at all). In addition to the above uses katama is said to mean 'best', 'excessively good-looking;' [cf. 3. ka.]

In negative sentences katara with cana = neither of the two (e. g. na kataraś-cana jigye, neither of the two was conquered; [cf. Gr. [greek] Goth. hvathar; Eng. whether; Lat. uter; Old Germ. huedar; Slav. kotoryi.]

katham katham (fr. 2. ka), ind. how? in what manner? whence? (e. g. katham etat, how is that? katham idānīm, how now? what is now to be done? katham mārātmake tvayi viśvāsaḥ, how can there be reliance on thee of murderous mind? katham utsṛjya tvāṃ gaccheyam, how can I go away deserting you? katham buddhvā bhaviṣyati sā, how will she be when she awakes? katham mṛ-tyuḥ prabhavati vedavidām, whence is it that death has power over those that know the Veda? katham avagamyate, whence is it inferred?). Sometimes katham merely introduces an interrogation (e. g. ka-tham ātmānaṃ nivedayāmi kathaṃ vā ātmā-pahāraṃ karomi, shall I declare myself or shall I withdraw ?).

katham katham is often found in connection with the particles iva, nāma, nu, svid, which appear to generalize the interrogation (how possibly? &c.); with nu it sometimes = kimu or kutas (e. g. kathaṃ nu, how much more! na kathaṃ nu, how much less!).

katham katham is often connected, like kim, with the particles cana, cid, and api, which give an indefinite sense to the interrogative (e. g. kathaṃ cana, in no way, not at all). When not itself negative kathaṃ cana = in some way, some how; scarcely, with difficulty; na kathaṃ cana, in no way; ka-thañcit, some how or other, by some means or other, in any way, with some difficulty, scarcely, in a moderate degree, a little; na kathañcit, not at all, in no way whatever; na kathañcid na, in no way not, i. e. most decidedly; yathā kathañcit, in any way whatsoever; kathañcid yadi jīvati, it is with difficulty that he lives; katham api, some how or other, with some difficulty, scarcely, a little; katham api na, by no means, not at all. In addition to the above senses lexicographers assert that katham may imply 'amazement, surprise, pleasure, abuse;' [with katham cf. Gr. [greek]]

     At the beginning of an adjective compound katham may have the same sense as kim.
     kathaṃrūpa kathaṃ-rūpa, as, ā, am, of what shape ?

kad 2. kad, ind. (originally the neuter form of the interrogative pronoun ka), Ved. a particle of interrogation, where? kad is used, like kim, with the particles cana and cid (e. g. na kaccana upabdiḥ śṛṇve rathasya, not at any time or in any manner is heard the noise of thy chariot; veti divaḥ-kaccid ā, he comes from heaven now and then).
     kaccid kaccid is sometimes used, like the simple kad, as a particle of interrogation (e. g. kaccid dṛṣṭā tvayā damayantī, was Damayantī seen by thee?). kaccid may sometimes be equivalent to 'I hope that' (e. g. vyādhir na kaccit te śarīram pratibādhate, I hope no illness afflicts thy body).

kam 1. kam, ind. (Gr. [greek]), well, bene (opposed to akam, 'badly'), a particle placed after the word to which it belongs with an affirmative sense (Well, Yes), which sense, however, is generally so weak that the Indian grammarians are perhaps right in enumerating kam among the expletives; it is often found attached to a dat. case, giving to the latter a stronger meaning, and is generally placed at the end of the Pāda (e. g. ajījana oskadhīr bhojanāya kam, thou didst create the plants for actual food); it is also used as an enclitic with the particles nu, su, and hi, but is nevertheless treated in the Padapāṭha as a separate word.
