Kiel is the correlative of manner: it asks "how" in a question and means "as" or "like" in a comparison. Its partner is tiel, so the frame tiel ... kiel gives you "as ... as" in one move. The correlative table pairs every ki- question word with a ti- answer word, and learning that grid once is far quicker than meeting kiel, kiam, kio and kiu as separate words.
