Kajira is the term for "slave-girl" in John Norman's Gor novels. Slaves in the Gorean lifestyle will refer to themselves as kajirae. The phrase la kajira is said to mean "I am a slave-girl" in the 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" (pl. "kajirae"), as most slaves in the Gorean lifestyle are female; the masculine forms are "kajirus" and "kajiri".
A common misconception among people practicing the lifestyle or playing out the Gorean theme online is that kajirae never refer to themselves in the First Person ("me" or "I") instead being allowed only to refer to themselves in the third person (your slave, this person or this girl). If one is adhering strictly to the novels this is inaccurate, as virtually all of the kajirae in the Gor novels do often refer to themselves in the first person.
Literary influence
Some aspects of Gorean slavery described in the Gor books -- such as the basic nadu position, and the custom in the northern temperate zone city-states that a kajira's garments should allow an open-air path to her private parts, to symbolize and facilitate her constant availability and accessibility to her master - were probably influenced by the classic erotic novel Story of O.
