anhēnār
anhēnār is derived from –hē– ‘good’ and –nār– ‘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 anhēnār is to look at the long term consequences of the action, event, or behavior.

anxōsa
anxōsa
This attribute refers to something being searched for. The inanimate singular can also refer to the event of looking for something. Here jatōna jaxōsa jōrre 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 jōrre is really only modifying jaxōsa and not jatōna jaxōsa.
Sentence #25:
ē ñi ancālli tō malō aþ ñamma jatōna jaxōsa jōrre aþ ñi sāen rā jatarūni jawēhi nō;
And the sun’s heat came, and he stopped searching for the road and started following mirages.
