slight variation:
lookfor = 'dfsdf'
for item, value in kev.items():
for i, val in enumerate(value):
if val == lookfor:
print item, i
break # assuming you only want one result
else:
print lookfor, 'not found'
This is what for-else is meant for.
If you want 0 to many lookfor occurences,
lookfor = 'dfsdf'
hits = []
for item, value in kev.items():
for i, val in enumerate(value):
if val == lookfor:
hits.append((item, i))
print hits
One-liner fanatics would, of course, rewrite this as
hits = [(item, i) for item, value in kev.items() for i, val in
enumerate(value) if val == lookfor]
