A Sanskrit English Dictionary | Sanskrit  English
खलु  n. ind. (as a particle of asseveration) indeed, verily, certainly, truly, [R.] ; [Śak.] &c.

खलु   ([ is only exceptionally found at the beginning of a phrase; it is frequently combined with other particles, thus अ॑थ ख्°, उ ख्°, वै॑ ख्°, ख्° वै॑, = now then, now further, [TS.] ; [TBr.] ; [ŚBr.] &c.; in later Sanskṛt frequently does little more than lay stress on the word by which it is preceded, and is sometimes merely expletive; it is also a particle of prohibition (in which case it may be joined with the ind.p. [खलु कृत्वा, ‘desist from doing that’] [Nir. i, 5] [also °तम्] [Pāṇ. 3-4, 18] ; [Śiś. ii, 70] ); or of endearment, conciliation, and inquiry, [L.] ; न खलु, by no means, not at all, indeed not, [R. &c.] ])
