in a without-fear way

Morphological NotesGr,D = adverb. Derived from ἄφοβος (fearless) with the adverbial ending -ως, indicating manner; it modifies a verb to describe action performed without fear.
Rendering RationaleThe term combines the negative prefix ἀ- (not/without) with φόβος (fear), forming an adverb meaning "without fear." Rendering it as "in a without-fear way" preserves both the privative force of the prefix and the adverbial function indicated by the morphology.
