[b]Kajira[/b] is the term for "[about=slave-girl]slave-girl[/about]" in [about=John Norman]John Norman[/about]'s "[about=Gor]Gor[/about]" novels. [about=Slave]Slave[/about]s in the [about=Gorean]Gorean [/about] lifestyle will refer to themselves as "kajirae". The phrase "la kajira" is said to mean "I am a slave-girl" in the main Gorean language (the most widely-spoken lingua franca in the known regions of the planet Gor); this is one of the few complete Gorean-language sentences given in the Gor novels. The word is usually seen in the feminine form "kajira" (plural "kajirae"), as most slaves in the Gorean lifestyle are female; the masculine forms are "kajirus" and "kajiri" (following the rules of nominative adjective morphology in the Latin language, as seen also with words such as "alumnus"/"alumna", etc.). The construction "kajiras" is incorrect, but is occasionally seen in third- party writing.
