इव — {iva} ind. (fr. pronominal base 3. {i}), like, in the same manner as (in this sense = {yathā}, and used correlatively to {tathā})##as it were, as if (e.g. {pathêva}, as if on a path)##in a certain manner, in some measure, a little, perhaps (in qualification or mitigation of a strong assertion)##nearly, almost, about (e.g. {muhūrtam iva}, almost an hour)##so, just so, just, exactly, indeed, very (especially after words which involve some restriction, e.g. {īṣad iva}, just a little##{kiṃcid iva}, just a little bit: and after a negation, e.g. {na cirād iva}, very soon). {iva} is connected vaguely, and somewhat pleonastically, with an interrogative pronoun or adverb (e.g. {kim iva}, what? {katham iva}, how could that possibly be? {kvêva}, where, I should like to know?). In the Pada texts of the Ṛig, Yajur, and Atharva-veda, and by native grammarians, {iva} is considered to be enclitic, and therefore compounded with the word after which it stands &c. &c
