In speech, Coscivian-speakers pronounce the domain suffix as ''dótkaro'', ''ka'' and ''ro'' being the Coscivian names for the Latin letters 'k' and 'r', the latter having been conflated with the Greek ''rho''. ''Dótkaro'' is often declined as if it were a third-declension noun (e.g. "the owners of greaterixnay.kr" would be ''émurya greaterixnay-dótkarosk''), but this is considered poor form in written language. | In speech, Coscivian-speakers pronounce the domain suffix as ''dótkaro'', ''ka'' and ''ro'' being the Coscivian names for the Latin letters 'k' and 'r', the latter having been conflated with the Greek ''rho''.

Registration of new domains at the third level is accomplished by submission of a request to Registrar.kr, a project of Kiravia Online. Most requests are submitted online, though the organisation receives a handful of requests by mail each year. In order to register a domain directly at the second level, the applicant must submit a written petition to Kiravia Online, where it is subject to review by a Board of Revisions based on several criteria, principally the applicant entity's "capacity for productive long-term occupancy of the domain", its degree of physical presence in Kiravia, and its "forseeable contributions to the advancement of Kiravian networked computing". It is understood that the third criterion is fulfilled by a sizeable donation to Kiravia Online in the applicant's name. Proposals for new categorical second-level domains are submitted by the Kiravian Internet Organisation. | Registration of new domains at the third level is accomplished by submission of a request to Registrar.kr, a project of Kiravia Online.

However, in 21206, Kiravia Online announced that enforcement of all requirements for open-registration domains would be suspended indefinitely as most registration services would now be handled by outside contractors. | ||
