11.71 Adverbial καί

Make sure you read Croy's notes in section 71 about the use of καί.

This is another good example of why simple word-for-word mechanical translation is impossible. When you see the Greek word καί you will often translate it as "and" - but you may sometimes translate it as "also" or "even."

If you see that καί is joining two things (two nouns, two verbs, two adjectives), then you will translate it as "and".

If καί is sitting with a single word (a single verb, a single noun, etc.), then you will need to choose which English translation sounds best, "also" or "even."
