the editor of NC. cf. also kūāra- occurring in this very sense at JC. 2 9 13. Vaidya connects it with "kü iti rava" ( vide Jasaharacariu, Glossary); cf. kūvāra- occurring in this very sense in PC. II & Bh. This usage is peculiar to Apabhramsa. ]
883. Ke(y)ā– 12 11 5, 20 3 10, 41 12 9, 98 17 16 'a rope'.
(=varatra-, rajju-(gl.); cf. ked-= rajju-, 'a rope' (D. 2 44) and kemju-= raiju (Tr. 3 4 72, 730). Kan. kayira, is a kind of horse. Hence keya
may perhaps meaa 'a bit of a bridie' (varatrā). ] 884. Kera— 16 17 10, 20 14 12, 54 17 5, 58 22 9, 71 3 2 'an order,' 'a
command', 'permission'.
[=ajna- (gl.). It is not note by PSM. kera- occurs in the sense of seva-, 'service' in KC.. PC. I, Br. K., NC. (5 10 13). The relevant
expression in NC. is "pahu-kera" - 'the Lord's command'. ] 885. Kela— 15 23 11 'a wine-glass'.

'competent, skilful',
=dakşa-, manojna- (gl); at 86 8 2 the gloss loosely renders it with kautukotpadaka-. It does not seem to suit the context. Here also dakşa- would fit in well. Alsdorf notes the gloss manohara, also for kocchara- at 86 8 2. This word is not noted by PSM. See kucchara-)
888. Kodda - 30 11 9, 101 3 1 'curiosity' 'wonder'.
