Tsabi-ams
Located right east of the Pomona Island and northern of the Kling Hart Mountains. Apparently a fountain there, -am- = mouth, water opening, and the -s (Fern, sing.) Indicates a source name determinedly. The source was located at a Swarttebbenhoutboom, apparently the component Tsabi, also Tsawi, who is often ingredient of place names. The Tsabiboom is an Euclea Pseudebe- Nus (Smith 1966 CNSAP 595). The source name passed on the mountain there.

afr
geleë reg oos van die Pomona-eiland en noordelik van die Klinghartberge. Klaarblyklik ’n fontein daar, -am- = mond, wateropening, en die -s (fern, sing.) dui baiemaal bepaaldelik 'n bronnaam aan. Die bron was by ’n swartebbenhoutboom geleë, blykens die komponent tsabi-, ook tsawi-, wat dikwels bestanddeel van plekname is. Die tsabiboom is 'n Euclea pseudebe- nus (Smith 1966 CNSAP 595). Die bronnaam het oorgegaan op die berg daar.
