Kira (& Kila) [Vedic kila] adv. i. emphatic : really, truly,
surely. ((Ir. (V/) — 2. presumptive (with pres. or fut.) :
I should think one would expect. — 3. narrative (with
aor.) : now, then, you know (Or. oi. Lat. at, G. aber). - -
kira in continuous story is what " iti " is in direct or
indirect speech. It connects new points in a narrative
with something preceding, either as expected or gues.sed.
It is aoristic in character (cp. Sk. sma). In questions
it is dubitative. while in ordinary statements it gives
the appearance of probabiUty, rather than certainty,
to the sentence. Therefore the definitions of commentators
: " people say " or " I have heard " : kirasaddo
anttssavane " : kira refers to a report by hearsay
" PvA 103; kira-saddo anussav'althe 1. J 158;
VvA 322 are conventional and one-sided, and in both
cases do not give the meaning required at the specified
passages. The same holds good for J 1.158 &
11.430 (kira ti anussavatthe nipato). — i . mahantag
