Kangkara
The Can-GO is also expressed Ka-ng-O, as the -ng- of passage: The verdict of Kangkara (also spelled on the latest cards, eg. On Map 1975 scale 1:50 000) does not prevent the name Compiled can be from Kan-k (h) Ara, as we may consider. We receive no direct help, but indirectly there is the fact that place names like Kango indicate that the can-tree does yoors. m.a.w. The first ingredient can be the canom. The second then part maybe like Nama 11khara = large, the whole 'place where large canb trees stand'. The Khoekhoians 'can' try to identify us elsewhere as the Osyris Compressa, watch Kanga 3321 CD.

Die Kan-go word ook uitgespreek Ka-ng-o, soos die -ng- van gang: die uitspraak van Kangkara (ook op die jongste kaarte so gespel, bv. op kaart 1975 skaal 1:50 000) verhinder nie dat die naam saamgestel kan wees uit Kan-k(h)ara nie, soos ons moontlik ag. Ons ontvang geen regstreeks hulp nie, maar onregstreeks is daar die feit dat plekname soos Kango aantoon dat die kanboom wel hier yoorkom. m.a.w. die eerste bestanddeel kan die kanboom wees. Die tweede deel dan miskien soos Nama 11khara = groot,die geheel die 'Plek waar groot kanbome staan'. Die Khoekhoense 'kan' het ons elders probeer identifiseer as die Osyris compressa, kyk KANGA 3321 CD.
