has three chief meanings, "and," "also," "even." When kai means "also" it precedes the word which it stresses. In English the order should be reversed. In John 9:40 , e.g., the RV rightly has "are we also blind?" instead of "are we blind also?" In Acts 2:26 the RV has "moreover My flesh also," instead of "moreover also ..." See EVEN.

"yet" or "further," is used (a) of time, (b) of degree, and in this sense is once translated "also," Luke 14:26 , "his own life also." Here the meaning probably is "and, further, even his own life" (the force of the kai being "even"). No other particles mean "also." See EVEN , FURTHER , LONGER , MORE , MOREOVER , STILL , THENCEFORTH , YET.
