Nuzinabis
The SWA series 1968 Skin 2618 Keetmanshoop has an interesting engagement on the farm Nuzinabis No. 69, District Keetmanshoop, right west of Aroab. It's viz. 'Window head'. The description of our segs clearly refers to this window head. Then window head is the poetic view of the farm name. 'EIN LOCH HINTURCHBOHREN' (KR. cf. th a * p 46), plus the adverbial -tsi, followed by the second element 11ho, again with the same fluctuation of H and N-, gathered here until -na-, in meaning of OA 'IIBERHANGENDER FELSVORSPRUNG' (Kr.-R. 187). The -be- is locative. The -s may specify here only the 'place'. ǀǀ Hutsi + 11hoa + be + s is then the reconstruction according to current orthography, And 'window head' is the pussy 'translation'.

Look, there is a stone just like that Natas, but he is not like that finger clip to narrow or too thin. He has a window, he has a hole. You see through that hole. 11hutsi ǀǀ hoabes. This means a 'cliff with a broken place', that is, a head with a natural window. 11hu actually means broken. ǀǀ Hoa is a cliff. It looks like he's a crush, but he's not a cliff '.

Kyk, daar is ’n klip net soos daardie Natas, maar hy is nie soos daardie Vingerklip te smal of te dun nie. Hy het ’n venster, hy het ’n gat. Jy sien dwarsdeur daardie gat. 11Hutsi- ǀǀhoabes. Dit beteken ’n ‘Krans met ’n stukkende plek’, dit is, 'n kop met 'n natuurlike venster. 11Hu beteken eintlik stukkend. ǀǀHoa is 'n krans.

The SWA series 1968 Skin 2618 Keetmanshoop has an interesting engagement on the farm Nuzinabis No. 69, District Keetmanshoop, right west of Aroab. It's viz. 'Window head'. The description of our segs clearly refers to this window head. Then window head is the poetic view of the farm name. 'EIN LOCH HINTURCHBOHREN' (KR. cf. th a * p 46), plus the adverbial -tsi, followed by the second element 11ho, again with the same fluctuation of H and N-, gathered here until -na-, in meaning of OA 'IIBERHANGENDER FELSVORSPRUNG' (Kr.-R. 187).

Die SWA-reeks 1968 vel 2618 Keetmanshoop het ’n interessante inskry- wing op die plaas Nuzinabis nr 69, distrik Keetmanshoop, reg wes van Aroab. Dit is nl. 'Vensterkop'. Die beskrywing van ons segsliede verwys duidelik na hierdie Vensterkop. Dan is Vensterkop die poetiese siening van die plaasnaam. 'Ein loch hindurchbohren' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 200) is in Nama ǀǀhu, en hiermee stem ooreen die Nu- van die plaasnaam (met die wisseling van h- en n- wat frekwent is na ’n schnalz, vgl. TH A* bl 46), plus die adverbiale -tsi, gevolg deur die tweede element 11hoa-, weer met dieselfde wisseling van h- en n-, hier saamgetrek tot -na-, in betekenis van o.a. 'iiberhangender Felsvorsprung' (Kr.-R. 187). Die -be- is lokatief. die -s spesifiseer moontlik hier net die 'plek'. ǀǀHutsi + 11hoa + be + s is dan die rekonstruksie volgens die huidige ortografie, en 'Vensterkop' is die poetiese 'vertaling' daarvan.
