The word /api means "too" or "even" —
yady apy ete na pazyanti यद्यप्येते न पश्यन्ति "even if these don't see"
It is an enclitic.
There is also a non-enclitic api अपि that can start a question:
apy avagacchasi अप्यवगच्छसि "capito?"
like Polish czy in sentences like Czy Basia ma kota? "Does Basia have a cat?".
