ǀHaiǀgoms
The name of this farm No 105 Southeast of Aus is now expressed by everyone who passes the sucking pads as above, viz. with a dental blow before each syllable, and it gives us a fixed fulcrum; cf. for the other returns th a ** 543. The ǀ hai = dull, gray or grou. The ǀ khom- (or a spelling variant of it ) is connected by most pods with a stone (Mr Frederick's teammate thinks of ǀ Gum-S = 'Roll'), and by the owner determined with a pale sand clip found on the mountain and used the meat side of the sheets to scrape, cf. Mr. Ulbrich's communication in th 543. His statement, moreover, is on knowledge of the conditions locally, now seems convincing to us

Die naam van hierdie plaas nr 105 suidoos van Aus is nou deur almal wat die suigklappe aangee, uitgespreek soos hierbo, nl. met ’n dentale slag voor elke lettergreep, en dit gee ons 'n vaste steunpunt; vgl. vir die ander opgawes TH A** 543. Die ǀhai = vaal, grys of grou. Die ǀkhom- (of ’n spellingvariant daarvan) word deur die meeste segsliede verbind met ’n klip (mnr Frederick se spanmaat dink aan ǀgom-s = 'Geroll'), en deur die eienaar bepaaldelik met ’n vaal sandklip wat daar op die berg gevind word en gebruik is om die vleiskant van die velle skoon te skraap, vgl. mnr AF Ulbrich se mededeling in TH 543. Sy verklaring wat bowendien op kennis van die toestande plaaslik berus, lyk nou vir ons oortuigend
