What does for 14 k mean pertaining to gold?

No, karat (or carat) as a purity measurement is divided by 24.

i.e.

1 kt is 1/24th gold (or platinum or other measured metal)

12kt's is 12/24th or 50% pure

24kt's is 24/24th or 100% pure

not to be sonfused with carat (mass), which is a measure of gemstones where 1ct = 200g.

Answer 2

It means it is 14/24ths gold. 14 K is fairly standard for good jewelry.

A karat is used as a measure of purity in gold. There are 24 karats equalling a 100% purity in the gold. So with 14 karat gold that means there are 14 parts (14/24) is pure gold and the other 8 parts (8/24) is a separate metal, most commonly copper. 14 karat gold is 58.33% pure gold.
