See also s.v. dkwwt, of which this is a dialectal variant. LJLA occasional forms without taw are probably to be viewed as scribal hypercorrections based on Hebrew כמו. Why these forms are occasionally used in some texts that normally use היך is unclear; we can suggest something like "just like, identical to", i.e., literally "the one who is like".
