 katham

kathám [p= 247,2] [L=42763]
(fr. 2. ka) , how? in what manner? whence? (e.g. katham etat , how is that? katham idānīm , how now? what is now to be done? katham mārā*tmake tvayi viśvāsa , how can there be reliance on thee of murderous mind? katham utsjya tvā gaccheyam , how can I go away deserting you? katham buddhvā bhaviyati sā , how will she be when she awakes? katham mtyu , prabhavati vedavidām , whence is it that death has power over those that know the veda? katham avagamyate , whence is it inferred?)

katham merely introduces an interrogation (e.g. katham ātmāna nivedayāmi katha*tmā*pahāra karomi , shall I declare myself or shall I withdraw?) katham is often found in connection with the particles iva , nāma , nu , svid , which appear to generalize the interrogation (how possibly? how indeed? &c )

nu it is sometimes = kimu , or kutas (e.g. katka nu , how much more! na katha nu , how much less!) katham is often connected , like kim , with the particles cana , cid , and api , which give an indefinite sense to the interrogative (e.g. katha cana , in any way , some how ; scarcely , with difficulty ; na katha cana , in no way at all ; kathacit , some how or other , by some means or other , in any way , with some difficulty , scarcely , in a moderate degree , a little ; na kathacit , not at all , in no way whatever ; na kathacid na , in no way not i.e. most decidedly ; yathā kathacit , in any way whatsoever ; kathacid 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) RV. &c

katham is a particle implying amazement
