kin is in almost all usage close to "also." kin is almost always used as a modifier. Instead of modifying the semantic space of the word it follows, it clarifies the relationship between that word and other ideas that could occupy the same position in the sentence. So if it modifies a subject, it means there are other things that do the same action. If it modifies a verb, it means there are other actions done by the same thing. If it modifies an object, it means that there are other things the action is done to.
Many people also use "kin" at the end (or, less commonly, the beginning) to modify the whole thing, similar to the English word "also." kin generally lacks a noun or transitive meaning for most speakers. If it is used in these positions, it may be similar to "alsoness" and "to make something also."

commentary
בשימוש נפוץ (גם לפני וגם אחרי pu), "a" ו"kin" הן מילים נפרדות, כל אחת עם משמעות משלה. בpu, הן נחשבות מילים נרדפות.
עברה שינויים משמעותיים בשימוש ב2002, לצד "en" ו"kan" (לא בשימוש כיום).
