ǃNaruxabeb

Narougabib is farm No. 51; It lies southeast of Aus where the colored people were questioned. Interestingly, Rev. Snewe the first member understood as ǀ haru- = matjies, rushes, the second part as consisting of -exa, amount morpheme (= lot), and locative morphembe-, but the team of Mr Frederick declared the first member directly If - Inaru- = Euclea Pseudebe- Nus, the blackback tree, plus Chabi-B = place, also spelled -chabi, the latter as one word. The change -n- and -h- (ǃ Na- cfg. for -gabi- as one word o.a. Heirachabis. We believe the odds are great that Mr Frederick and his team can look like: they are from Aus and know the farm near Aus.

Description
eng Narougabib is farm No. 51; It lies southeast of Aus where the colored people were questioned. Interestingly, Rev. Snewe the first member understood as ǀ haru- = matjies, rushes, the second part as consisting of -exa, amount morpheme (= lot), and locative morphembe-, but the team of Mr Frederick declared the first member directly If - Inaru- = Euclea Pseudebe- Nus, the blackback tree, plus Chabi-B = place, also spelled -chabi, the latter as one word. The change -n- and -h- (ǃ Na- cfg. for -gabi- as one word o.a. Heirachabis. We believe the odds are great that Mr Frederick and his team can look like: they are from Aus and know the farm near Aus.
afr Narougabib is plaas nr 51; dit le suidoos van Aus waar die Bruinmense ondervra was. Interessant dat eerw. Snewe die eerste lid verstaan as ǀharu- = matjiesgoed, biesies, die tweede gedeelte as bestaande uit -xa-, hoeveel- heidsmorfeem (= baie), en lokatiewe morfeem -be-, maar die span van mnr Frederick verklaar die eerste lid direk as — Inaru- = Euclea pseudebe- nus, die swartebbenhoutboom, plus chabi-b = plek, ook gespel -chabi-, laasgenoemde dus as een woord. Die wisseling -n- en -h- (ǃna- teenoor ǀha-) is baie frekwent (vgl. 5 D 6 in TH A* 46), en die -gabib kan op albei ma- niere opgevat word. vgl. vir -gabi- as een woord o.a. HEIRACHABIS. Ons meen die kans is groot dat mnr Frederick en sy span gelyk kan he: hulle is van Aus en ken die plaas daar naby Aus.
