Tboop

Today farms civ. Q. 19-35 (T'bop) and CIV. Q. 17-5 (T'boop North), District Calvinia, northwestern of Brandvlei, and adjacent to Carthead and Katkoppkolk. Dr of Vredes 1961 Origin treats the name. We didn't get any indication of the meaning. If we look at the old ever-returning pattern, then it is possible that T'boop is the old Khoekhoense name of 'clover (Vley)', the adoptive farm, here on the south side. We cannot test this linguistically, because our data does not contain the nama word for 'clover'. The names of the other adjacent farms can test our linguistically, but then with negative result. We assume that t'bop from Khoekhens can Come, including the T- who will represent a sucking consonant. As a farm name, Klawervlei no longer appears on the topo-cadastral series 1967 sheet 3018 Loeriesfontein, even if the name of the Saltvlei at the beginning of the Salt River. This Klawvlei is the most important place in the BB block of this grade square (cf. Skin 3019 Bb of pomegranate crown, scale 1:50 000). Census card's farm 'Clover Vley' is now enrolled as 'Commissioner's Vley' on the said cadastard card 1967. Digitances seem to plead for t'bop between survival in the first component of the pannaam Klawernvlei.

Description
eng Today farms civ. Q. 19-35 (T'bop) and CIV. Q. 17-5 (T'boop North), District Calvinia, northwestern of Brandvlei, and adjacent to Carthead and Katkoppkolk. Dr of Vredes 1961 Origin treats the name. We didn't get any indication of the meaning. If we look at the old ever-returning pattern, then it is possible that T'boop is the old Khoekhoense name of 'clover (Vley)', the adoptive farm, here on the south side. We cannot test this linguistically, because our data does not contain the nama word for 'clover'. The names of the other adjacent farms can test our linguistically, but then with negative result.

afr Vandag plase Civ. Q. 19-35 (T'Boop) en Civ. Q. 17-5 (T'Boop-Noord), distrik Calvinia, noordwestelik van Brandvlei, en aangrensend wes aan Katkop en Katkopskolk. Dr Van Vreeden 1961 Oorsprong behandel die naam nie. Ons het geen aanduiding van die betekenis gekry nie. As ons hier kyk na die ou steeds-terugkerende patroon, dan is dit moontlik dat T’Boop die ou Khoekhoense naam is van 'Klaver (Vley)', die aangren- sende plaas, hier aan die suidekant. Ons kan dit taalkundig nie toets nie, omdat ons gegewens nie die Namawoord vir 'klawer' bevat nie. Die name van die ander aangrensende plase kan ons taalkundig wel toets, maar dan met negatiewe resultaat. Ons neem aan dat T'Boop uit Khoekhoens kan kom, o.a. op grond van die T- wat ’n suigkonsonant sal verteenwoordig. As plaasnaam kom Klawervlei nie meer op die Topo-kadastrale reeks 1967 vel 3018 loeriesfontein voor nie, wel nog as die naam van die soutvlei aan die begin van die Soutrivier. Hierdie Klawervlei is die belangrikste plek in die BB-blokkie van hierdie graadvierkant (vgl. vel 3019 BB Granaatbos- kolk, skaal 1:50 000). Sensuskaart se plaas 'Klaver Vley' is nou ingeskryf as 'Commissioner’s Vley' op die genoemde kadasterkaart 1967. Omstan- dighede skyn daarvoor te pleit dat T'Boop vertaald voortbestaan in die eerste komponent van die pannaam Klawervlei.
