afr Op die Topografiese reeks 1974 vel 2916 Springbok, noordoos van Port Nolloth en ongeveer 100 km noordwes van Springbok, kom hierdie Gabies voor as 'Rabies', nl. vir ’n pan en ook vir die daarbyliggende berg, 602 meter hoog, sodat dit 'n opvallende verhewenheid is. Baie naby, effens meer as twee kilometer, le reg wes daarvan 'Spioenkop', 500 meter hoog, d.w.s. dit staan 'n goeie 100 meter bo die vlaktespieel daar uit. Spioeneer of beloer is in Nama gawi (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 73). Tot die gewoonste wisse- linge behoort die van g- en k- (gawi/kawi) en -b- en -w- (gabi/gawi). Ga- wies/Kabies, soos in 'Rabies se Rop', en spioen in 'Spioenkop', is duide- lik dieselfde in die eerste lid, Nama en Afrikaans onderskeidelik, m.a.w. 'Spioenkop' van vandag is die vertaling van die Gabies/Rabies van die ou Namas. Die plaaslike tradisie van 'keel toedruk' het taalkundig geen goeie gronde meer nie, 'n tradisie wat ons al vroeër vir hierdie selfde naam ook van dieselfde segsliede gehoor het, vgl. A* 336 onder GABI(E)S(RI- VIER). Hierdie riviertjie se naam kom nie op ons kaarte voor nie, ook nie op die skaal 1:50 000 nie. Die riviertjie en die pan 'Rabies se Pan' het wel hulle naam van die berg geneem, 'Rabies se Berg', wat beteken 'Spioenberg' (of -kop), en die omgewing wat nou 'Gabies' genoern word, het ook sy naam hieraan ontleen. Naas gawi = spioeneer kom ook voor (sonder velaar maar met 'n slag) ǃawi, kyk Rr.-R. 31, en hierdie ǃawi sal die grondslag gewees het van die ou naam van die riviertjie wat Opme- ting in 1965 opgeteken het as 'T’Gabiesrivier'. Dit is dan die derde vorm van dieselfde naam: Gabies, Rabies (sonder tongslag), T’Gabies (met slag). Vir gegewens oor laasgenoemde kyk A* 336.
