afr Die plaas Hyes nr 191 (reeks S.A. 1974 1:50 000 vel 3019 BB Granaatboskolk) le net suid van Granaatboskolk. Ons meen dat ons hier die gewone patroon het en dat die Afrikaanse naam (Granaatbos-) die Khoekhoense naam net vertaal. Die wildegranaat, die Rhigozum brevispinosum (Wiss HJ 1975 Botanische Mitt 44), is in Nama 11hau-s, volgens die Duitse spelling uit te spreek. Nou moet die naam Hye-s volgens die Engelse spelling uit- gespreek word, die Hy- ongeveer soos why, dan blyk dit dat ons dieselfde woord kan he. Hyes is ’n ou naam en het o.i. betrekking op 'n ou in heemse plantsoort, die wildegranaat, waarop ook die naam 'Granaatbos- kolk' heenwys. Granaatboskolk is dan self 'n vertaling uit die streeknaam. Die -s van die fem. sing, dui hier aan dat die naam -n waterplek is, bepaal- delik ’n bron of kolk.
