Gaibis
Dr of Vreden's statement shows how difficult it is to come to the right meaning without any fixed help. The suction consonant and then the express translation of Vollmer enables us to connect the meaning with Nama ╪gae-B = 'Knochenmark' (Rust 1960 DNW 41). The reason for the nomination is speculative today. The -s connect the name to a fountain. The name went on farm 226, Dist. Keetmanshoop, located about Aroab and Koes. 'Murgfontein'.

Dr Van Vreeden se verklaring toon aan hoe moeilik dit is om sonder enige vaste hulp by die juiste betekenis uit te kom. Die suigkonsonant en dan die uitdruklike vertaling van Vollmer stel ons in staat om die betekenis te verbind met Nama ╪gae-b = 'Knochenmark' (Rust 1960 DNW 41). Die rede vir die benoeming is vandag spekuiatief. Die -s verbind die naam aan 'n fontein. Die naam het oorgegaan op plaas 226, dist. Keetmanshoop, geleë ongeveer tussen Aroab en Koes. 'Murgfontein'.
