ankēspen
the quality of having patience or perseverance, of willingness to put up with tasks and situations that require sustained effort over time, of dealing with situations that might upset one without becoming upset. This is seen as a positive quality.
ankēnnā
As an attribute, this means questioning, curious, interested, wondering, not necessarily about something specific. As an abstraction, this refers to curiosity and interest.
la sāen makēnnā;
“She is curious.”
ankēnnā can also refer to something experienced:
sema jakēnnā to jasēlki jatūi;
She is curious about flying machines.
The form becomes jakēnnā because it is the object of SE and so specifies a particular curiosity. This is something I have difficulty explaining. The stative form refers to an abstract concept. But one doesn’t experience an abstract concept, one experiences a feeling or some other specific thing. So, one cannot say sema ankēnnā where we would say that someone experiences curiosity, one has to make it specific and so one says sema jakēnnā.
jakūñīlle

jakeλēten
a feeling that one needs to undo the effects of something that has been done. This is sort of like penitence, in that it has the idea that the person feeling this ought to perform some action to mitigate or undo a previous action; however, there is no particular authority or priesthood directing what actions one should take, nor is it necessary that the person feeling jakeλēten be the person who performed the action for which one feels penitent.

a feeling of regret, of wishing one hadn’t done that.
sema jakelōren to anwīþþēñi pē;
He regrets some wine.

a feeling of eagerness, of wanting to do some task or work. You know, like figure out a noun classification system, or translate a popular song into your language, the fun stuff.
ankīrelil
the feeling of being surrounded by kin and friends, safe, secure, loved. This is how one feels when at home with one’s family. This is what a child feels when held by its mother. ankīrelil is used most often as the first object in a PA clause.
pa ankīrelil sāen þō sū jamāra jatāelle;
He felt secure here in his new home.
jakecōna
a feeling of safety that comes from being watched over, even if only metaphorically, or surrounded by people, or indoors, etc.
jakewāla
a feeling of uncertainty about the future, a feeling that inspires caution and carefulness. This word is not used nearly as much as the stative:
ankewāla
used primarily in the phrase ānen ankewāla, which means with care or caution, carefully, cautiously.
