eng The name, alone or with component - head or layer after which it makes hybrids is written with a preposition of t 'or for the suction consonant. The farm is southeastern Pofadder, and the cup of Gaimop head on the south side of the farm Ken.q.4-15, Dist. Kenhardt, T'gaimo (e) PS Low Q. 5-15 on K 2920 AC / DB, see farm name list. It is certain that the first member 'tgai or t'gai- does not equal nama gei [kai] = large, due to the suction patch. Therefore, the Steenkamp's statement is definitely to show. What suction slap it is, we don't know. Possibly it is like Nama Farmer) '╪Gei = Wach, ╪Geimub = Waghes Auge', spelled at Rust 1960 DNW 71: ^ Kei = 'Wach', with -moe-P such as Nama Mu, for 'see', mu-s = Eye, eg. for a source or water eye. Also see Keimoe 'red-eye'. All that is sure is that it does not mean 'Grootoog' -vlei 'not, etc., Well a' Blinkvlei 'which is a pan (the farm' shiny flattery 'is attached).

afr Die naam, alleen of met komponent -kop of -laagte daarna wat dit hibridies maak, word geskryf met ’n voorsetsel T’ of ’T vir die suigkonsonant. Die plaas le suidoostelik van Pofadder, en die koppie Gaimopkop aan die suidekant van die plaas Ken.Q.4-15, dist. Kenhardt, T’Gaimo(e)ps laagte Q. 5-15 op K 2920 AC/DB, kyk plaasnaamlys. Dit is seker dat die eerste lid 'TGai- of T’Gai- nie gelyk te stel is met Nama gei [kai] = groot nie, vanweë die suigklap. Daarom is die verklaring van Steenkamp beslis af te wys. Watter suigklap dit is, weet ons nie. Moontlik is dit soos Nama ǀgai = sterk ('Sterkoog'), of soos ǃgai- = pofadder ('Pofadderoog'), of soos ╪ khai = blink ('Blinkoog'), of (dit is die suggestie van Krenz FK 1976 Boer) ' ╪gei = wach, ╪Geimub = waches Auge', wat by Rust 1960 DNW 71 gespel word: ^kei = 'wach', met -moe-p soos Nama mu-, vir 'sien', mu-s = oog, bv. vir ’n bron- of wateroog. Kyk ook KEIMOE 'Rooi-oog'. Al wat seker is, is dat dit nie beteken 'Grootoog' nie. In die distrik is in hierdie graadvierkant geen 'Sterkoog, -fontein, -vlei' nie, ens., wel 'n 'Blinkvlei' wat 'n pan is (die plaas 'Blink Vlei' le te verweg).
