Sous

Today, the name of farm Civ. Q. 23-9, Dist. Calvinia. Here are different farms with the component 'puts' in the name. e.g. (From the Census Card for the immediate vicinity) Bitterputs, the Puts, Jakals Puts, Stinkputs, and after 1891 others added, such as new weeks just west of the mentioned bitter pits. Then it seems pretty sure to be in the name sauce of farm No. Q. 23-9, to see a nation mutual adjustment of the Nama for Puts, viz. Tsau, with the -s (Fern, sing.) Here as a source name index, the starting point of the farm name. The name is m.a.w. Khoen, not Afrikaans, and have nothing to do with 'gravy' in its meaning. 'Puts'.

Description
eng Today, the name of farm Civ. Q. 23-9, Dist. Calvinia. Here are different farms with the component 'puts' in the name. e.g. (From the Census Card for the immediate vicinity) Bitterputs, the Puts, Jakals Puts, Stinkputs, and after 1891 others added, such as new weeks just west of the mentioned bitter pits. Then it seems pretty sure to be in the name sauce of farm No. Q. 23-9, to see a nation mutual adjustment of the Nama for Puts, viz. Tsau, with the -s (Fern, sing.) Here as a source name index, the starting point of the farm name. The name is m.a.w. Khoen, not Afrikaans, and have nothing to do with 'gravy' in its meaning. 'Puts'.
afr Vandag nog die naam van plaas Civ. Q. 23-9, dist. Calvinia. Hier is ver- skillende plase met die komponent 'Puts' in die naam. bv. (uit die Sensuskaart vir die onmiddellike omgewing) Bitterputs, De Puts, Jakals Puts, Stinkputs, en na 1891 het nog ander bygekom, soos Nuweputs net wes van die genoemde Bitterputs. Dan lyk dit redelik seker om in die naam Sous van plaas nr Civ. Q. 23-9, 'n volksetimologiese aanpassing te sien van die Nama vir puts, nl. tsau-, met die -s (fern, sing.) hier as indeks van die bronnaam, die beginpunt van die plaasnaam. Die naam is m.a.w. Khoe- khoens, nie Afrikaans nie, en het in sy betekenis niks met 'sous' te doen nie. 'Puts'.
