Oubeep
Before the first member is a clapping sound. Maybe like obese ('Stinkfontein') or as UBIB ('Brakfontein'), watch there. If there was no suction consonant, we could plead for 'bitterfontein', at Nama Old [au] = bitter (bitter ( Rust 1960 DNW 11), because some place names that ingredient in that part of the country, and the sound guy simply match.

Voor die eerste lid is ‘n klapklank. Miskien soos OBEES ('Stinkfontein') of soos UBIB ('Brakfontein') te verklaar, kyk aldaar. As daar geen suigkonso- nant vooraan was nie, sou ons kon pleit vir 'Bitterfontein', by Nama ou [au] = bitter (Rust 1960 DNW 11), omdat enkele plekname daardie bestanddeel het in daardie deel van die land, en die klank Ou- sonder meer ooreenstem.
