The three K´s were a conception of the traditional women`s role. The whole phrase is "Kinder, Küche und Kirche" = children, kitchen and church. That means that a woman was supposed to care for the children, to keep house and to realise the moral ideas of the church.

After WW2 and with the appearance of the feminist movement, this conception was abandoned bit by bit. Later in the educated middle-classes the word "Kirche" (=church) was replaced by the word "Kammermusik" (=chamber music).

Nowadays the three K´s are considered to be antiquated. Today the phrase is "Kinder, Küche und Karriere" (=children, kitchen and career) - if it is used at all.

Single letters do not have a meaning other than the English "I" To obtain a meaning one must form words.

The letter "K" remains the same as in most European languages.
