Naib, Naip

Forbes 1965 PTSA 105 could determine that Gordon's Heib is the same name that occurs on cards today as Naib or Naip on the Route Concordia northwards to Growfontein, 32 km further. About the allophonic behavior of H and N- look Hott 181 and we 5 d 6. But about the meaning we are in the dark; Perhaps, as suggested on the form of surveying, it is to do with the turtle dove (Nama -). This name for a mountain, a farm and for 'Naib Plateau', all at 2918, should not be confused with NAIP 2919.

Description
eng Forbes 1965 PTSA 105 could determine that Gordon's Heib is the same name that occurs on cards today as Naib or Naip on the Route Concordia northwards to Growfontein, 32 km further. About the allophonic behavior of H and N- look Hott 181 and we 5 d 6. But about the meaning we are in the dark; Perhaps, as suggested on the form of surveying, it is to do with the turtle dove (Nama -). This name for a mountain, a farm and for 'Naib Plateau', all at 2918, should not be confused with NAIP 2919.
afr Forbes 1965 PTSA 105 kon vasstel dat Gordon se Heib dieselfde naam is wat vandag op kaarte voorkom as Naib of Naip op die roete Concordia noordwaarts na Kweekfontein, 32 km verder op. Oor die allofoniese gedrag van h- en n- kyk HOTT 181 en ons 5 D 6. Maar oor die betekenis is ons in die duister; dalk het dit, soos op die formulier vir die kantoor van Opmeting gesuggereer word, iets te doen met die tortelduif (Nama ╪nai-), of met die kameelperd wat hier veel voorgekom het en seifs hier sy Afrikaanse naam gekry het (Nama ǃnai-). Hierdie naam vir ’n berg, ’n plaas en vir 'Naib Plateau', almal op 2918, moet nie verwar word met NAIP 2919 nie.
