kkiri?

Belgarath · 28 Mar 2005

I've encountered some sort of connector or something like that which I haven't seen before, and which I can't find any info on... The example I have is this:
お前のおやじには世話になってからな・・・思いっきり、安くしとくぜっ！ (omae no oyaji ni wa sewa ni natte kara na... omoikkiri, yasuku shito kuze!)
Assuming what it all means isn't very difficult, but I'd like to have some understanding on this "kkiri"-thingy!

I think what you have here is an emphatic version of 思い切り.

Um... I believe I just read something about that! *digs through printed grammar papers*

Okay, I'll quote:

"kiri and giri come from kiru, to cut. This postposition is similar to 'only/merely' in a confining matter, as opposed to dake, which is an open-ended-only:

japanese: ふざけなと行った切り
english: "Don't screw around!" he (only) said."

hope that helps you ^^

「ふざけないと言った切り」 maybe?
