ǃNaos

It's about Naos No. 79, a farm east of the How Krantzberg in the Great Karas Mountains. Kr. 1969 NW gives as meaningsǃ Nao-S o.a. On 'Joch, Klotz, Balken, Brett ...' (p. 281). Apparently, it is the current consumption that inspired the statements. If the -s (sing, Fern.) Also here a fountain / Source indicates what then was the starting point of the ultimate farm name, then a conceivable statement 'fountain at the tree trunk, wooden block,' according to the colored people, or. According to Mr Krenz, '... at the rocky block' (the Krantzberg is near there).

Description
eng It's about Naos No. 79, a farm east of the How Krantzberg in the Great Karas Mountains. Kr. 1969 NW gives as meaningsǃ Nao-S o.a. On 'Joch, Klotz, Balken, Brett ...' (p. 281). Apparently, it is the current consumption that inspired the statements. If the -s (sing, Fern.) Also here a fountain / Source indicates what then was the starting point of the ultimate farm name, then a conceivable statement 'fountain at the tree trunk, wooden block,' according to the colored people, or.

afr Dit gaan hier oor Naos nr 79, 'n plaas oos van die hoe Krantzberg in die Groot Karasberge. Kr.-R. 1969 NW gee as betekenisse by ǃnao-s o.a. op 'Joch, Klotz, Balken, Brett...' (bl. 281). Blykbaar is dit die huidige ge- bruik daarvan wat die verklarings geinspireer het. As die -s (sing, fern.) ook hier ’n fontein/bron aandui wat dan weer die beginpunt van die uitein- delike plaasnaam was, dan is ’n denkbare verklaring 'Fontein by die boomstomp, houtblok', volgens die Bruinmense, of. volgens mnr Krenz, '...by die rotsblok' (die Krantzberg is daar naby).
