jamēþena
Line 7 of the Kēlen Jabberwocky:
il jīla þō ñi macāppacāe matāλisse rā xō rā jamēþena jaxēla kiē;
(See Nov 7th’s post for an introduction.)
jamēþena is a new word, meaning “woods, set of trees”. It is related to the word jamēþa ‘tree’, which I haven’t blogged yet. rā jamēþena jaxēla kiē is “through the dark woods”.

In the afternoon, the circular lizards did gyre and gimble around the shadow-stick.
The easily-annoyed thin-winged bird-spiders were annoyed.
The lost chicken-pigs make cough-cries!
Beware macāppacāe, its biting teeth, its many catching claws,
the frumious makīmaþālen, the macūcū bird
Be away from them.
For 1/8th of a day, he searched for his enemy, a deadly blade in his hand.
Therefore, leaning and still, he thought under the jasātsātena.
At that moment, mercurial macāppacāe came to there through the dark woods.
