Description
eng Van Vrede leads it from 'Dabee, Abiekwaboom; ǀ AB, Watercourse ', which has then contracted to dabep and means' abique water '. Well conceivable is that the -B (or -P) indicates only the place, the whole 'place with Daweebome' or 'abicquo tree'. Cfg. The equivalent to Daweb, in the sense of Tamarix USNEOIDES.
afr Van Vreeden lei dit af van 'dabee, abiekwaboom; ǀab, waterloop', wat dan saamgetrek het tot Dabep en beteken 'Abiekwaloop'. Goed denkbaar is dat die -b (of -p) net die plek aandui, die geheel dan 'Plek met daweebome' of 'Abiekwaboomplek'. Vgl. die gelykbetekenende DAWEB, in die sin van Tamarix usneoides.
