Saraip

Saraip' is farm no. Q. 12-24, District Namaqualand. In the north-west direction, also according to the corresponding topographical map 1974, the non-perennial 'Saraip's lows'. This river run originated about south of 'Dustvlei'. It seems as if 'Dustvlei', 'Saraip's lows' and 'Saraip' form a toponimic chain. In addition to the topographical connection, there may also be a linguistic agreement between the names. 'Fabric' is in Nama Tsara (Rust 1960 DNW 58), 'Staub ... in the Luft Strue' is Sari (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 341). It may then seem that 'Saraip' can be a contraction of (t) sari-ei - / (t) Sara-ei-; Ei- [Ai] = 'face', 'front', 'plain' (Kr.-. 60). If precisely, we have a case where the Afrikaans component of a toponimic core group (sometimes only partial) translation of the Khoekhoian component is. The lock -p / b is the mascot. Sing, and indicate as such that the longest valley was toponimies primer and that the name was only later transferred to the farm.

Description
eng Saraip' is farm no. Q. 12-24, District Namaqualand. In the north-west direction, also according to the corresponding topographical map 1974, the non-perennial 'Saraip's lows'. This river run originated about south of 'Dustvlei'. It seems as if 'Dustvlei', 'Saraip's lows' and 'Saraip' form a toponimic chain. In addition to the topographical connection, there may also be a linguistic agreement between the names. 'Fabric' is in Nama Tsara (Rust 1960 DNW 58), 'Staub ... in the Luft Strue' is Sari (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 341). It may then seem that 'Saraip' can be a contraction of (t) sari-ei - / (t) Sara-ei-; Ei- [Ai] = 'face', 'front', 'plain' (Kr.-. 60).

afr Saraip' is plaas nr Nam. Q. 12-24, distrik Namakwaland. In noordweste- like rigting loop daaroor, ook volgens die ooreenstemmende Topografiese kaart 1974, die nie-standhoudende 'Saraip se laagte'. Hierdie rivierloop het sy oorsprong ongeveer suid van 'Stofvlei'. Dit lyk dan asof 'Stofvlei', 'Saraip se laagte' en 'Saraip' ’n toponimiese ketting vorm. Naas die topografiese verband is daar miskien ook ’n taalkundige ooreenkoms tussen die name. 'Stof' is in Nama tsara- (Rust 1960 DNW 58), 'Staub ... in die luft streuen' is sari (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 341). Dit lyk dan moontlik dat 'Saraip' ’n sametrekking kan wees van (t)sari-ei-/(t)sara-ei-; ei- [ai-] = 'gesig', 'voorkant', 'vlakte' (Kr.-R. 60). Indien juis, het ons weer 'n geval waar die Afrikaanse komponent van ’n toponimiese kerngroep die (soms net gedeeltelike) vertaling van die Khoekhoense komponent is. Die slot -p/b is die masc. sing, en dui as sodanig aan dat die langerige laagte toponimies primer was en dat die naam eers later op die plaas oorgedra was.
