anhÄ“nÄr
anhÄ“nÄr
anhÄ“nÄr is derived from –hÄ“– ‘good’ and –nÄr– ‘whole’. It refers to the proper order of things, the quality of being expectedly useful and appropriate, right, correct, true, and proper. It is understood that what is claimed to be right, correct, true, and proper isn’t necessarily so, and that the only way to tell if something is truly anhÄ“nÄr is to look at the long term consequences of the action, event, or behavior.

Sentence #27:

anxÅsa
anxÅsa
This attribute refers to something being searched for. The inanimate singular can also refer to the event of looking for something. Here jatÅna jaxÅsa jÅrre is: the road, it’s being searched for, the ending of that. It’s probably not the way a better writer (than me) would put it since jÅrre is really only modifying jaxÅsa and not jatÅna jaxÅsa.
Sentence #25:
Ä“ ñi ancÄlli tÅ malÅ aþ ñamma jatÅna jaxÅsa jÅrre aþ ñi sÄen rÄ jatarÅ«ni jawÄ“hi nÅ;
And the sun’s heat came, and he stopped searching for the road and started following mirages.
